Words and Music © 1989 by Howard Ashby Kranz

         C#m                            G#     Bm                                F#          

Intro: We wanted to sing together, but it caused so much strain

            D                          F#m               Bm                       C#7 – B7 - C#7 – B7

Cause I couldn’t sing in your key, and my key just caused you pain.

   C#7                        B7                                                   

1. I was too high, or you were too low

 C#7                       B7                                  F#        B7        F#       B7

until we found the right place to go; it was F sharp, it was F Sharp

   C#7                                    B7                                                   

2. We were best friends and we were best lovers

              C#7                         B7                                F#        B7        F#       B7

but the song wouldn’t sing until we discovered that F sharp, it was F Sharp

                  C#7                          B7                                     

Bridge: We tried to talk about it; we tried to do without it

       F#              B7                    F#                  

we fretted, and sometimes we fumed.

C#7                               B7  C7  B7                            

Until we figured out about F sharp,

       D                                    C#7

the whole arrangement was doomed.

                         C#7                      B7                                                    

Da-das: Da de da da da da da da da da da da

      C#7                      B7                             F#   B7        F#     B7   F#     B7

Da de da da da da da da da da da da da da da da,  da da da da

                   C#7                          B7                                                   

3. Now the artists and sages and everybody

     C#7                                B7                                   F#        B7        F#       B7

all over the world, they all look for the key, and it’s F sharp, yes it’s F Sharp

              C#7                       B7                                                        

4. The world is all full of a lot of good stuff

       C#7                               B7                             F#     B7                  F#          B7

but man, if you want to be married to us, sing in F sharp, exclusively F Sharp

                   F#
