"I Loves You, Porgy" (George & Ira Gershwin & Dubose Hayward)

Intro

[Emaj7] flourish

Verse

([B7]) [Emaj7] [F#m7] [G#m7] [C#m7]

I loves you, Porgy, don't let him take me

[G#m7] [C#9] [F#9] [Am7]

Don't let him handle me, and drive me mad

[E/B] [C#m7] [F#m7] [Am7]

If you can keep me, I wanna stay here with you forever,

[E/B] [F#m7/B] [Emaj7] [B7]

and I'll be glad

Yes I loves you, Porgy, don't let him take me

Don't let him handle me, with his hot hands

If you can keep me, I wants to stay here with you forever

I've got my man

I loves you, Porgy, don't let him take me

Don't let him handle me, and drive me mad

If you can keep me, I wanna stay here with you forever

I've got my man

Bridge

[Am6] [F7] [E7]

Someday I know he's coming to call me

[Am6] [G7sus] [G7]

He's going to handle me and hold me.

[Cm] [Cm/Bb] [Ab7]

So, it' going to be like dying, Porgy, when he calls me.

[Ab7] [G7sus] [G7] [Dm7] [B7]

But when he comes I know I'll have to go

I loves you, Porgy, don't let him take me

Honey, don't let him handle me, and drive me mad

If you can keep me, I wanna stay here with you forever

I've got my man.
