D5        F5     E5     A5 D5      F5      E5      A5
Have you seen the well-to-do up and down Park Av - e - nue?
F5       F5    C#5     C5   F5         F5  C#5     C5
On that famous thoroughfare with their noses in the air,
A5   G5    B5  E5      A5    G5     B5    E5
High hats and Arrow collars white spats and lots of dollars,
F#5      F#5  B5   C5              A5   A5   A5
Spending every dime for a wonderful time.


D5         A5      D5        G5       D5    A5
If you're blue and you don't know where to go to,
    D5       G5       A5     B5 A5                D5   F#5  Bb5  A5
Why don't you go where fashion sits?    Puttin' on the Ritz.
D5         A5       D5    G5       D5           A5
Different types who wear a day coat, pants with stripes
    D5            G5    A5   B5 A5                 D5    Bb5    D5
And cutaway coat, perfect fits,         puttin' on the Ritz.

Bridge:
G5       A5     F5      A5     D5
Strolling up the av - e - nue so happy,
F5           D5     G5     C5      F5          Bb5   A5
All dressed up just like an English chappie -- very snappy!


D5         A5        D5    G5    D5        A5
Come let's mix where Rockefellers walk with sticks
    D5   G5    A5        B5 A5                  D5    Bb5    D5
Or "umber-ellas" in their mitts,    puttin' on the Ritz.

Bridge 2:
G5         A5     F5     A5     D5
Dressed up like a million dollar trouper,
F5      D5     G5       C5   F5        Bb5   A5
Trying hard to look like Gary Cooper (super duper)


D5         A5       D5     G5    D5     A5
You'll declare it's simply topping to be there 
    D5        G5     A5         B5  A5                
And hear them swapping smart tid - bits  -- 
                D5     Bb5  A5
Puttin' on the Ritz,
A5             D5   Bb5 A5  A5              D5  G5   D5
Puttin' on the Ritz,          puttin' on the Ritz!
