A FINE ROMANCE

Jerome Kern


Tom: Dm

  C6      C#dim7 Dm6     D#dim7
A fine romance with no kisses
  Em7    Am7    Dm7       G7
A fine romance, my friend this is
   C6               Ebdim7      Dm7 G7  Dm7  G7
We should be like a couple of hot tomatoes
   C6                A7           Gb7    F7 E7  A7 Dm7 G7
But you're as cold as yesterday's mashed potatoes

[Chorus]
  C6      C#dim7 Dm6     D#dim7
A fine romance you won't nestle
 Em7    Am7    Dm7       G7
A fine romance you won't wrestle
 C6                  C7                     Fmaj7 A7/E
I might as well play bridge with my old maid aunt
 Dm7      D#dim7  Em7 Eb7 Dm6       G7      C6   Dm7  G7
I haven't got a chance, this is a fine romance

[Chorus]
  C6      C#dim7 Dm6     D#dim7
A fine romance my good fellow
  Em7    Am7    Dm7       G7
You take romance I'll take jello
       C6               Ebdim7      Dm7 G7  Dm7  G7
You're calmer than the seals in the artic ocean
    C6                A7           Gb7    F7 E7  A7 Dm7 G7
At least they flap their fins to express emotion

[Chorus]
 C6      C#dim7 Dm6     D#dim7
A fine romance with no quarrels
 Em7    Am7    Dm7       G7
With no insults and all morals
     C6               C7                        Fmaj7 A7/E
I've never mussed the crease in your blue serge pants
  Dm7   D#dim7    Em7 Eb7 Dm6       G7      C6   Dm7  G7
I never get the chance, this is a fine romance
