Artist/Band: Mel Torme Tabs
Song: I Cover The Waterfront Tab
Intro Verse:
G6 Bb9 G6 Bb9
Away from the city the hurts and knocks,
G6 Bb9 G6* Bb9
I'm standing alone by the desolate docks
G6 Bb9 G Bb9
In the still and the chill of the night;
G6 Bb9 G6 Bb9
I see the horizon, the great unknown
G6 Bb9 G6* Bb9
My heart has an ache, it's as heavy as stone --
G6 Bb9 G6
Will the dawn coming on make it last?
Melody:
Em7/9 Em7 A7/6 A7 DM7 G6 F#m7 Fdim
I cover the waterfront, I'm watching the sea;
Em7 G/B A7 D6 Cdim Dalt D6
Will the one that I love be coming back to me?
Em7/9 Em7 A7/6 A7 Dalt G F#m7 Fdim
I cover the waterfront, in search of my love,
Em7 G/B A7 D Gm D
And I'm covered by a deep blue sky above.
Bridge:
Em7 A7 DM7 B7
Here am I, patiently waiting,
Em7 A7 DM7 Bm7
Hoping and longing -- oh, how I yearn!
B7 EM7 C#m
Where are you? Are you forgetting?
A B7 A7/6 A7
Do you remember? Will you return?
Em7/9 Em7 A7/6 A7 Dalt F#m7
I cover the waterfront, I'm watching the sea,
Fdim Em Em7 G A7sus4 A7 D
'Cause the one that I love will soon come back to me
