                            "Just One Smile"
                             (Randy Newman)

Intro:

	C#
	 / / / /  / / / /

Verse 1:

	C#          Eb7/C#
	Can't I cry        a little bit
	F#m6/C#           C#
	There's nobody to    notice it
	Abm7             Eb7     Ab7         C#   Cm7  F7
	Can't I cry if I want to     no one cares

	Bbm                Fm
	    Why can't I pretend
	Bbm                    Fm
	    That you love me again
	Bbm      Cm           C#            Eb
	All I've had has been    taken from me
	Bbm      Cm         C#                Eb
	Now I'm cryin' and tears don't become me

Chorus:

	 F       Bb6/F  C7/F                F
	Just one smile,      the pain's forgiven
	 F       Bb6/F C7/F                 F
	Just one kiss,      the hurt's all gone
	 F       Bb6/F            C7/F        F
	Just one smile to make my life worth living
	 F       Bb6/F             C7/F    F       Bb7
	A little dream to build my world upon

	(key change to Eb)

Verse 2:

	Eb         F7/Eb
	How I wish       I could say
	Abm6/Eb                Eb
	All the things that I want to say
	Bbm7                  F7        Bb7     Eb    Dm7  G7
	If some way you could see what's in my heart
	Cm                  Gm
	   I don't ask for much
	Cm                     Gm
	   A look, A smile, A touch
	Cm        Dm        Eb               F
	Try to forget, the Lord knows I'm tryin'
	         Cm            Dm             Eb              F
	But it's    hard to forget when your whole world is dyin'

[repeat chorus (in G); fade 2nd time]:

	 G       C6/G   D7/G                G
	Just one smile,      the pain's forgiven
	 G       C6/G  D7/G                         G
	Just one kiss,     [3: now] the hurt's all gone
	 G       C6/G             D7/G        G
	Just one smile to make my life worth living

	A little dream to build my world upon
