[Intro] Dm  C  Bb  A7
        Dm  C  Bb  A7

           Dm                             A7b9 
Of all the boys i've known and i've known some
         Dm                   A7b9
Until i first met you i was lonesome
              Dm                     Gm 
And when you came in sight, dear my heart grew light
         Dm                      A7
And this ol' world seemed new to me

               Dm               A7b9 
You're really swell, i have to admit you
                   Dm                 A7b9
These are the expressions that really fit you
             Dm                      Gm 
And so i've racked my brain, hoping to explain
         Bb7                  A7   A7#5
All the things that you do to me

    Dm 
Bei mir bist du schon, please let me explain
    A7                                Dm  C  Bb  A7
Bei mir bist du schon, means you're grand
    Dm 
Bei mir bist du schon, again i'll explain
    A7                              Dm   Dm7
It means you're the fairest in the land

             Gm                  Dm 
I could say "Bella, bella," even say "Wunderbar"
              Gm                    A7      Bb7      A7  A7#5
Each language only helps me tell you   how grand you are
      Dm    
I've tried to explain, bei mir bist du schon
   A7                         Dm  C  Bb  A7
So kiss me and say you understand

    Dm 
Bei mir bist du schon

You've heard it all before but let me try to explain
    A7                                     Dm  C  Bb  A7
Bei mir bist du schon, means that you're grand
    Dm
Bei mir bist du schon
    A7 
It's such an old refrain and yet i should explain
                                Dm   Dm7
It means i am begging for your hand

             Gm                  Dm 
I could say "Bella, bella," even say "Wunderbar"
              Gm                    A7      Bb7      A7  A7#5
Each language only helps me tell you   how grand you are
      Dm    
I've tried to explain, bei mir bist du schon
   A7                         Dm  C  Bb  A7
So kiss me and say you understand
