Baby, It´s You

 

Written by John Stewart

 

‘Baby, It´s You’ is on “The Day the River Sang”, Appleseed, 2006. 

Charlie writes: “I'm still in the spell of the night I first fell.”  Simple yet great.  Great rhythm, fun song to play. 

Two rhythm guitars – again, here´s a playable arrangement for one guitar.

And when the (F)stars at night

Ah, they´re (F4)doing alright

And they (F)sing to (F4)me of (Am)you,

And the (F)moon on the hood

Is (F4)doing what it should,

And I (F)dream when the (F4)moon (F)is (C)blue…

 

And baby, it's (Dm)you, (Bb) (C)

Baby, it's (F)you, (Dm7) (Bb) (C)

Baby, it's (F)you, (Dm)you, (Bb)you,

(C)Baby, it's (F)you.   (F4)   (F) (F4) (Am)

 

And I'm (F)still in the spell

Of the (F4)night I first fell,

And (F)baby, you (F4)know that it´s (Am)true,

And I'll (F)get my chance

At the (F4)Nightingale Dance

When they´ll (F)play every (F4)song (F)we (C)knew.

 

And baby, it's (Dm)you, (Bb) (C)

Baby, it's (F)you, (Dm7) (Bb) (C)

Baby,it's (F)you, (Dm)yo(Bb)u,

And (C)baby, it's (F)you.   (F4)   (F) (F4) (Am)

(F)  (F4)   (F) (F4) (F) (C)

 

And baby, it's (Dm)you, (Bb) (C)

Baby, it's (F)you, (Dm7) (Bb) (C)

Baby,it's (F)you, (Dm)you, (Bb)you,

(C)Baby, it's (F)you.   (F4)  (F)  (C)

 

And when the (F)clear blue sky

Is (F4)falling in my eyes

And there's (F)nothing that (F4)I can (Am)do,

Oh, ´n´ the (F)music is sweet

Down on (F4)Cadillac Street,

And (F)baby, that´s (F4)when (F)I (C)knew…

 

That baby, it's (Dm)you, (Bb) (C)

Baby, it's (F)you, (Dm7) (Bb) (C)

Baby,it's (F)you, (Dm)you, (Bb)you,

(C)Baby, it's (F)you.   (F4)

 

And baby, it's (F)you, (Dm) (Bb)

And (C)baby, it's (F)you, (Dm7) (Bb)

And (C)baby,it's (F)you, (Dm)you, (Bb)you,

‘N’ (C)Baby, it's (F)you.   (F4)  (F)  (F4) (F) (C) 

(F)   (F4)   (F)  (F4) (F) (C)  (F)   (F4)   (F)  (F4) (F) (C) 

(F)   (F4)   (F)  (F4) (F) (C)…
