When Joanna Loved Me
Words & Music by Robert Wells & Jack Segal
Recorded by Tony Bennett, 1964 (#94)
Intro:
C Bb9 C Bm7-5 E7
Today is just another day, tomorrow is a guess;
Am Am+7 Am7 Am6
But yesterday, oh, what I'd give for yesterday,
Dm Dm+7 Dm7 Dm6 G
To relive one yesterday and its happiness...
Dm7 Dm7-5
When Joanna loved me,
CM7 CM7/6
Every town was Paris,
Dm7 Dm7-5
Every day was Sunday,
G7 C Edim Dm7 G7
Every month was May;
Dm7 Dm7-5
When Joanna loved me,
CM7 CM7/6
Every sound was music,
Dm7 Dm7-5
Music made of laughter,
G7 C Fdim C
Laughter bright and gay.
Bridge:
FM7 Bb9
But when Joanna left me,
C C/B Am7
May became December;
Am7/G Fm Fm7 Bm7-5 E7
But, even in December, I remember
Em7 A9 Bm7-5 G
Her touch, her smile, and for a little while.
Dm7 Dm7-5
She loves me,
G7 CM7 CM7/6
And once again it's Paris,
Dm7 Dm7-5
Paris on a Sunday,
G7 C Fdim C
And the month is May.
