DM7 D6 DM7 D D6 A7 DM7 D D9
There's a small ho - tel with a wish - ing well,
Em7 Em7sus4 A7 A DM7/9 Bm7 G6 Edim
I wish that we were there to - geth - er;
DM7 D6 DM7 D D6 A7 DM7 D D9
There's a bri - dal suite, one room bright and neat,
Em7 Em7sus4 A7 A Am7 D9 Am7 D7
Com - plete for us to share to - geth - er.
Bridge:
G Em Am7 D7
Looking through the win - dow,
G6 Edim Am7 B7
You can see a dis - tant stee - ple
Em B7 Em B7 C Em Bbm7-5 A7
Not a sign of peo - ple -- who wants peo - ple?
DM7 D6 DM7 D D6 A7 DM7 D D9
When the stee - ple bell says, "Good night, sleep well,"
Em7 Em7sus4 A7 A Am7 D9 Am7 D7
We'll thank the small ho - tel to - geth - er.

We'll creep in - to our lit - tle shell,

And we will thank the small ho - tel to - geth - er.
If you're familiar with the Benny Goodman version, then know know that Helen Ward didn't sing any coda. But I found the lyric for it on the 'Net and took some rather large liberties with what it might have sounded like if Goodman had let her sing an ending.
