Something There
From Beauty And The Beast
Music by Alan Menken
Lyrics by Howard Ashman
C Dm11 - G7
C Dm11 - G7
C Dm11 - G7
C
Dm7/C - G7/B -
There's something sweet
C
And almost kind
Dm/C - G7/B - C - C7/Bb -
But he was mean and he was coarse and unrefined
F/A - Fm/Ab -
And now he's dear
E/G# - A7/G -
And so unsure
Dm/F - Dm/G - - G7 - - C
I wonder why I didn't see it there before
Dm7/G - Dm -- G7 --
C
Dm7/G - G7 -- Bb --

Dm7/G
- G7
Dm7/C - G7/B -
She glanced this way
C
I thought I saw
Dm/C - G7/B - C - C7/Bb -
And when we touched she didn't shudder at my paw
F/A - Fm/Ab -
No it can't be
E/G# - A7/G -
I'll just ignore
Dm/F - Dm/G - - G7 - - C - -
But then she's never looked at me that way before
G/C -- C -- G/C
C -- G/C -- C -
F - C/E - Dm7 -
New
Dm7/G - Em - Emadd9 - Em7/A -
and a bit alarming
A9 - C/D - D7/A D7 G7 Bb6/C - C - Bb/C -- C -- Bb/C -- C --
Who'd have ever thought that this could be?
F - Fmaj7 - F6
True
Em - Emadd9 - G/A -
that he's no Prince Charming
A9 - C/D D9 G
But there's something in him that I simply didn't see
Dm/G - G -
G7sus4 -
Well, who'd have thought?
G7 -
Well, bless my soul
C
Well, who'd have known?
Well, who indeed?
Dm/G C -
And who'd have guessed they'd come together on their own?
C7/Bb -
It's so peculiar. (Wait and see)
F/A - Fm/Ab -
We'll wait and see
E7/G#
A few days more
Dm/F - G7 - C
There may be something there that wasn't there before
Dm7/G - G7 - C
You know, perhaps there's something there that wasn't there before
Dm7/G - G7 - C
There may be something there that wasn't there before
From Beauty And The Beast
