    A Foggy Day/in London Town

  • Artist:

    Louis Armstrong

G5                       A5 
I was a stranger in the city; 
G5   G5            A5      D5 
Out of town were the people I knew. 
G5                          F#5 
I had that feeling of self-pity -- 
        B5           B5         B5  E5 
What to do?  What to do?  What to do? 
     A5            C5           G5 
The outlook was de - cid - ed - ly blue; 
G5       B5                 A5    A5      E5 
But as I walked through the foggy streets alone, 
F5  B5         F5     A5      D5        G5   A5   G5 
 It turned out to be the luckiest day I've known. 
 
Melody: 
D5  G5   F5 A5          D5     C5 
A foggy day     in London town 
G5   G5 G5 G5 A5 A5  D5 
Had  me   low     had  me down. 
G5 E5       G5     C5 C5 
 I  viewed the morning with  alarm; 
    G5        E5          A5      D5 
The British mu - se - um had lost its charm. 
D5   G5      F5             A5         D5 
How long, I wondered, could this thing last? 
C5     G5     G5       G5  A5   D5 
But the age of mir - a - cles hadn't passed, 
    D5         G5   C5       A5 
For sud - den - ly I saw you there -- 
E5  A5    G5     C5     G5 
And through foggy London town 
    C5       E5    A5 A5   D5     G5 - G5 - D5 - G5   C5   D5 
The sun was shin - ing ev' - ry - where.
