Right from the start let's get one thing straight
C
F
When it comes to the heart you can't legislate
Am
G
Funny the things a fellow will remember sometimes
C
F
Like the scene from the movie Citizen Kane
C
F
One short moment with me remains
Am
G
Funny the things a fellow will remember sometimes
C
F
When Bernstein says now you take me
C
F
Stuck in my mind one memory
Am
G
I was crossing over to Jersey on the ferry
C
F
As we pulled out another ferry pulled in
C
F
A second between them was all it could have been
Am
G
And on it was a girl waiting to get off
C
G
A white dress is what she had on
C
F
One second later she was gone
Am
G
She never saw me at all,she carried a white parasol
C
F
That was in eighteen ninety six
C
F
And I bet a month hasn't gone by since
Am
G
That I haven't thought of that girl on the Jersey ferry
C
F
Now it's nineteen forty one
C
F
Nigh half a century been and gone
Am
G
And I still remember that girl with the white dress on
C
F
A fleeting glimpse of chances missed
C
F
Destiny or fates cruel twist
Am
She'd never even know that I exist,
G
How about that
C
F
Time is the ticket and the years the toll
C
F
Did I mention she carried a white parasol
Am
G
Funny the things a fellow will remember sometimes
