There's a small ho - tel with a wish - ing well,

I wish that we were there to - geth - er;

Com - plete for us to share to - geth - er.
Bridge:
G Em Am7 D7
Looking through the win - dow,

Not a sign of peo - ple -- who wants peo - ple?

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.
