CRUISING DOWN THE MEDLEY

(D)Cruising down the (B7)river, on a (E7)Sunday afternoon,
With (A7)one you love (E7)the sun above
(D)waiting for the (E7)moon.(A7)
The (D)old accordion (B7)playing a (E7)sentimental tune
(D)Cruising (E7)down the (D)river on a (E7)Sunday (A7)after(D)noon......

(C)After the (F)ball is (C)over, after the break of (G7)morn,
(D7)After the (A7)dancers leaving,
(G7)After the stars are (C)gone, Many a (F)heart is (C)aching,
(A7)If you could read them (D7)all.
(G7)Many the hopes that have (C)vani(A7)shed (D7)af(G7)ter the (C)ball....

(G)Casey would waltz with a strawberry blonde,
And (D7)the band played on.
He'd glide cross the floor with the girl he adored,
And (G)the band played on.
But his brain was so (D7)loaded it (G7)nearly (C)exploded,
The (Am)poor girl would shake in alarm.
He'd (C)ne'er leave the (G)girl with the strawberry curls,
And the (A7)band (D7)played (G)on......

(C)After the (F)ball is (C)over, after the break of (G7)morn,
(D7)After the (A7)dancers leaving, (G7)After the stars are (C)gone,
Many a (F)heart is (C)aching, (A7)If you could read them (D7)all,
(G7)Many the hopes that have (C)vani(A7)shed
(D7)Af(G7)ter the (C)ball.........
