After You've Gone (Key of Bb)
Ella Fitzgerald (Layton & Creamer, 1918)










| [Eb] After you've gone, | [Ebm] and left me cryin' |
| [Bb] After you've gone, | [G7] there's no denyin' |
| [C7] You feel blue, | [F7] you feel sad |
| [Bb] You miss the bestest pal | [Bb7] you ever had |
| [Eb] There'll come a time, | [Ebm] now don't forget it |
| [Bb] There'll come a time, | [G7] when you'll regret it |
| [Cm] Some- [G7] day | [Cm] when you grow [Ebm] lonely |
| [Bb] Your heart will [D7] break like mine and | [Gm] you'll want me [C7] only |
| [Bb] After you've gone, | [F7] after you've gone a- | [Bb] way | [Bb7] |
| [Eb] After you've gone, | [Ebm] after the break up |
| [Bb] After you've gone, | [G7] you are gonna wake up |
| [C7] And you will find | [F7] that you were blind |
| [Bb] To let somebody come and | [Bb7] change your mind |
| [Eb] After the years, | [Ebm] we've been together
The | [Bb] joy and the tears, in | [G7] all types of weather |
| [Cm] Some- [G7] day | [Cm] when you're down [Ebm] hearted |
| [Bb] You'll long to [D7] be with me right | [Gm] back where we | [C7] started |
| [Bb] After you've gone, | [F7] after you've gone a- | [Bb] way | [Bb7] |

That | [F] never [G7↓] learns to | [C] live | [C]
When the | [C] night has been too | [G7] lonely
And the | [F] road has [G7↓] been too | [C] long
And you | [C] find that love is | [G7] only
For the | [F] lucky [G7↓] and the | [C] strong
Just re- | [Em7] member in the | [Am] winter
For be- | [F] neath the bitter | [G7] snow
Lies the | [C] seed that with the | [G7] sun's love
In the | [F] spring [G7↓] becomes the | [C] rose | [C] | [C] | [C↓]
