It’s almost tomorrow (1956)

 

    G - Bm - C - D

 

            G               Bm             C             G

1. My dearest, my darling, tomorrow is near,

            C                     G             A               D

    the sun will bring showers of sadness, I fear.

            G                    Bm              C                    G

    You lips won't be smiling, your eyes will not shine,

        C               G         Em          A              D    G            

    for I know tomorrow that your love won't be mine.

 

           G            Bm                 C           G

2. It's almost tomorrow, but what can I do ?

              C            G                        A              D

    Your kisses all tell me that your love is untrue.

 

(original moves up half a note here to capo 2nd)

 

         G              Bm          C                     G

    I'll love you forever till stars cease to shine,

             C                       G         Em           A         D    G            

    and hope someday, darling, that you'll always be mine.

 

              G                 Bm                 C                       G

3. You heart was so warm dear, it now has turned cold,

            C             G                          A                     D

    you no longer love me for your memories grow old.

          G            Bm               C                      G

    It's almost tomorrow, for here comes the sun,

            C            G       Em        A         D      G            

    But still I am hoping that tomorrow won't come.

 

+ repeat verse 2 (capo moves up to capo 3rd) , last line :

 

             C                       G                       Am D            G
