Everything Happens to Me
Words & Music by Tom Adair & Matt Dennis
Recorded by Frank Sinatra, 1940

Melody:

 Em9 A9 F#m7 Gdim
I make a date for golf, and you can bet your life it rains;

 Em7 A+ Am6 B7
I try to give a party, and the guy upstairs complains.

 Em7 C#m7-5 F#7 Bm7
I guess I'll go thru life just catching colds and missing trains

Em7 A7 D6
Ev'rything happens to me.

 Em9 A9 F#m7 Gdim
I never miss a thing I've had the measles and the mumps,

 Em7 A+ Am6 B7
And ev'rytime I play an ace, my partner always trumps.

 Em7 C#m7-5 F#7 Bm7
I guess I'm just a fool who never looks before he jumps

Em7 A7 D
Ev'rything happens to me.

Bridge:

 Am7 D7 G9 G6
At first my heart thought you could break this jinx for me,

 Am7 D7 G9 G6
That love would turn the trick to end despair;

 G#m7 C#7 F# F#6
But now I just can't fool this head that thinks for me

 Bm7 F# Bm7-5 E7 Em7 A7
I've mortgaged all my castles in the air

 Em9 A9 F#m7 Gdim
I've telegraphed and phoned, and sent an airmail special, too;

 Em7 A+ Am6 B7
Your answer was "Good bye" and there was even postage due.

 Em7 C#m7-5 F#7 Bm7
I fell in love just once, and then it had to be with you

Em7 A7 D DM7 B7
Ev'rything happens to me,

Em7 A7 D
Ev'rything happens to me.
