[Verse]
Cm7 F7 Bbmaj7 G9
I'm sentimental, so I walk in the rain
Cm7 F7b9 Dm7-5 G7+5 Cm7
I've got some habits even I can't explain
Cm7-5 Dm7 Dbdim7
Could start for the corner, turn up in Spain
Cm7 F13 Dm7 G7b9
But why try to change me now
Cm7 F7 Bbmaj7 G9
I sit and daydream, I've got daydreams galore
Cm7 F7b9 Dm7-5 G7+5 Cm7
Cigarette ashes; there they go on the floor
Cm7-5 Dm7 Dbdim7
I'll go away weekends, leave my keys in the door
Cm7 F13 Dm7 G7b9
But why try to change me now
[Chorus]
Gm7 Gbm7 Fm7 Bb7 Eb6/9 C7+5 Fm7 Bb9
Why can't I be more conventional, People talk, and they stare So I try
Eb6/9 Am7 Ab7
But that's not for me
Gm7 C7
Cause I can't see
Fmaj7 Dm7 Gm7 C7
My kind of crazy world
Cm7 F7 Bm7
Go passing me by
Cm7 F7 Bbmaj7 G9
So let people wonder, let 'em laugh, let 'em frown
Cm7 F7b9 Dm7-5 G7+5
You know I'll love you till the moon's upside down
Cm7 Ab9 Dm7 Dbdim7
Don't you remember I was always your clown
Cm7 F13 Bb6
Why try to change me now
