Intro: G G/F# Em7 G7 C D7(9)/A  

       C/G D G  
 
G                     G/F# 
Every day I sit beside you 
       Em7         G7  
On the bus to Madison Avenue 
            C         D7(9)/A  
Work in the big gray store  
         C/G   D     G ,   D7(9) 
With the revolving doors. 
 

G                      G/F# 
You don't even know my name 
Em7              G7  
I guess that I'm to blame 
                C              D7(9)/A  
Don't know the right things to say 
     C/G  D   G ,   (*) 
So I pretend away.  
 
 
D7(9)/A   Gm7 
That, I'm Rudolph Valentino  
 
Pull up in my limousine 
               D7(9)/A            Am7 
Oh, won't you come in out of the rain 
D7(9)/A                 Am7 ,  (*) 
Things'll never be the same.  
 

D7(9)/A   Gm7 
And then just like Greta Garbo 
  
You stare like there's no tomorrow  
           D7(9)/A                Am7 
And you'll know what I'm thinking of 
B7                            Em 
Right before your eyes I fall in love with you  
B7            B7/A       Em 
Do, do, do... do do do, do do do do...  
 
 
G                    G/F# 
Today I'm done with games (Today I'm done with games)  
      Em7              G7  
Gonna ask you for your name 
               C       D7(9)/A 
Say I've been watching you 
            C/G  D   G , D7(9) 
I even know what you do. 
 

G                   G/F# 
Maybe today I'll tell you (Maybe today I'll tell you)  
      Em7                    G7 
I've found the nerve to sell you 
     C        D7(9)/A  
On a guy like me 
                C/G  D    G ,  D7(9) (*)
Who wishes that he  could be, oh, oh...  
 
 
     Gm7 
Your Rudolph Valentino  
 
Pull up in my limousine 
               D7(9)/A            Am7 
Oh, won't you come in out of the rain 
D7(9)/A                 Am7 , 
Things'll never be the same.  
 

D7(9)/A   Gm7 
And then just like Greta Garbo 
  
You stare like there's no tomorrow  
           D7(9)/A                Am7 D7(9) 
And you'll know what I'm thinking of, oh...

Do do do do do do do do... 

Do do do do do do do do... 
D7(9)/A             Am7 
Do do do do do do do do... 
D7(9)/A             Am7 
Do do do do do do do do... 
Gm7 
Do do do do do do do do... 
D7(9)/A             Am7 
Do do do do do do do do... 
D7(9)/A             Am7 
Do do do do do do do do... 
B7                                Em 
Right before your eyes I fall in love with you 
B7                   B7/A       Em  
Right before my eyes you'll say you love me to... 
 
 
Gm7

Things'll never be the same. 
 

D7(9)/A   Gm7 
And then just like Greta Garbo 
  
You stare like there's no tomorrow  
           D7(9)/A                Am7 D7(9) 
And you'll know what I'm thinking of, ooh...
