[Intro]~
A C#m Bm E
A C#m Bm E
[Verse 1]~
A C#m Bm E A C#m Bm
I know it's the same old song I'm singing
C#m F#m
But this time these words are just for you
D E A C#m D E
That's the only thing that's new!
A C#m Bm E A C#m Bm
I know that I've sung about a million
C#m F#m
Borrowed lines and phrases from a few!
D E C#m F#m
This one's still as good as new!
D E A E7
Without the fanfare I love you!
[Verse 2]~
A C#m Bm E A C#m Bm
By day I move words around like flowers!
C#m F#m
I deliver by the afternoon
D E A C#m D E
'cause the piper calls the tune!
A C#m Bm E A C#m Bm
Today I made full use of the hours!
C#m F#m
I explored the smallest avenue
D E C#m F#m
And that feeling still came through!
D E A E7
Without the fanfare I love you!
[Bridge]~
F#m F#mMaj7
Sure I've lost my way sometimes
F#m7 B7
But I've had to pay!
D E A F+
Sometimes I've gone completely overboard!
F#m F#mMaj7
Moved a million phrases round,..
F#m7 B7
tried to make them leave the ground,..
D E
Still the only line that soared
C#m F#m
Bidding all the rest,.. "adieu",..
D E C#m F#m
Sounding still as good as new,..
D E A E7
Without the fanfare I love you!
[Verse 3]~
A C#m Bm E A C#m Bm
Hello,.. do I still have your attention..?
C#m F#m
I forgot to mention thanks again
D E A C#m D E
from the captain and the crew!
A C#m Bm E A C#m Bm
And so,.. without the sweet perfume or roses
C#m F#m
I hope you can still believe it's true
D E C#m F#m
Stripped of all that much ado--
D E F#m7
Without the fanfare I love you!
D E A
Without the fanfare I love you!
