Lyrics and Chords


[Hello Dolly]

[ A+ =  ]

Out there, there's a world outside of Yonkers 
Way out there beyond this hick town, Barnaby 
There's a slick town, Barnaby 
Out there, full of shine and full of sparkle 
Close your eyes and see it glisten, Barnaby 
Listen, Barnaby

/ D A7 Bm7 A7 / Bm7 - / C D / Em7 Dm7 G Dm7 / G - / Dm G /

Put on your Sunday clothes, there's lots of world out there
Get out the brilliantine and dime cigars
We're gonna find adventure in the evening air
Girls in white in a perfumed night
Where the lights are bright as the stars

/ C - Cmaj7 - / C Am7 Gm7 - / C Am7 - Am / Em F / Em Dm7G7 / 

   Put on your Sunday clothes, we're gonna ride through town 
   In one of those new horse-drawn open cars 
   We'll see the shows at Delmonico's 
   And we'll close the town in a whirl 
   And we won't come home until we've kissed a girl

   / C - Cmaj7 - / C Am A7 - / Dm E7 / Am D7 / C Dm7 C - /

Put on your Sunday clothes when you feel down and out 
Strut down the street and have your picture took 
Dressed like a dream your spirits seem to turn about 
That Sunday shine is a certain sign 
That you feel as fine as you look

   Beneath your parasol, the world is all a smile 
   That makes you feel brand new down to your toes 
   Get out your feathers, your patent leathers 
   Your beads and buckles and bows
   For there's no blue Monday in your Sunday
   No Monday in your Sunday
   No Monday in your Sunday clothes

   ... / C Dm7 / / C Dm7 C - /

Put on your Sunday clothes when you feel down and out...

   Beneath your bowler brim the world's a simple song 
   A lovely lilt that makes you tilt your nose 
   Get out your slickers, your flannel knickers 
   Your red suspenders and hose 
   For there's no blue Monday in your Sunday clothes

{Spoken}
Ermengarde, keep smiling, no man wants a little ninny
Ambrose do a turn, let me see
Mr. Hackl, Mr. Tucker don't forget Irene and Minnie
Just forget you ever heard a word from me

/ G - C - / D - G - / C - G - / D7 - G - /

All aboard, all aboard
All aboard, all aboard
All aboaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaard
     All aboard, all aboard, all aboard, all aboard

/ Bb - / A+ - / G7 G G7 G / 

Put on your Sunday clothes there's lots of world out there 
Put on your silk cravat and patent shoes 
We're gonna find adventure in the evening air 
To town we'll trot to a smoky spot 
Where the girls are hot as a fuse, Wow! 

   Put on your silk high hat and at the turned up cuff 
   We'll wear a hand made gray suede buttoned glove 
      We wanna take New York by Storm!
   We'll join the Astors at Tony Pastor's and this I'm positive of 
   That we won't come home, no we won't come home 
   No we won't come home until we fall in love

   / C - Cmaj7 - / C Am A7 - / Dm E7 / Am D7 /
      / C - - - Am - - - / Dm7 - - - - - - C - - - /
