CAPO: 4th Fret
[INTRO:] G D C G F C D G
[VERSE 1:]
[F]All the lovely [C]ladies in their [G]finery tonight
I [F]wish that I could know them one by [G]one
[F]All the handsome [C]gentlemen with [G]loving on their minds
[F]Strolling in to take the ladies [G]home
[CHORUS:]
[C]Bless you all and keep you on the [F]road to tenderness
[Bb]Heaven can be yours, just for [G]now
[VERSE 2:]
[F]All the gentle strangers who by [G]nature do not smile
To [F]everyone who cannot hold a [G]pen
To [F]all you heavy rounders with a [G]headache for your pains
Who [F]dread the thought of going 'round the [G]bend
[CHORUS:]
[C]Bless you all and keep you on the [F]road to better things
[Bb]Heaven can be yours, just for [G]now
[VERSE 3:]
To [F]all the lovely [C]ladies in their [G]finery tonight
I [F]wish that I could kiss you while you [G]knit
To [F]all the ones who [C]learn to live with [G]being second-guessed
Whose [F]job it is to give more then to [G]get
[CHORUS:]
[C]Bless you all and keep you with the [F]strength to understand
[Bb]Heaven can be yours, just for [G]now
[INSTRUMENTAL:] D C G F C D G
[VERSE 4:]
To [F]all the little dreamers with a [G]dream that cannot last
To [F]all the sleeping giants who must [G]wake
To [F]every man who answers to the [G]letter of the law
And [F]all the rest imprisoned by mis[G]take
[CHORUS:]
[C]Bless you all and keep you with the [F]faith to let it pass
[Bb]Heaven can be yours, just for [G]now
[VERSE 5:]
To [F]all the lonely sailors who have [G]trouble being seen
To [F]all of you with heartache that re[G]mains
[F]Maybe sometime later you might [G]swim back into shore
If [F]someone could relieve you of your [G]chains
[CHORUS:]
[C]Bless you all and keep you on the [F]land or on the sea
[Bb]Heaven can be yours, just for [G]now
