A Game of Musical Chairs

Tin Pan Alley
Written By Shannon Borg

Long ago

Lost in the crowd

In pain I could hardly bear

I fell in love with the one left standing

In a game of musical chairs

Now Dear

I fear

That you

Are falling

To sorrow

Have you forgotten who you are?

Lie with me

And we will remember

Together

And take heart

(devastating trumpet solo)

Now Dear

I fear

That you are falling

To sorrow

Have you forgotten who you are?

Lie with me

And we will remember

Together

And take heart:

Long ago

Lost in the crowd

In pain I could hardly bear

I fell in love with the one left standing

In a game of musical chairs

(From “Johnny Hartman: The Lost Sessions”)
