Written by George Gershwin and Ira Gershwin

	  		
Intro: Verse 

Bm        Bm7/E  Em7                Em5-/7 
Why did I wander here and there and yonder 
D                Em9  D                 G6  A7 
Wasting precious time for no reason or rhyme 
D          C#7    C7          B7 
Isn't it a pity,  Isn't it a crime 
E            E9     Em7           Em5-/7 
My journey's ended, everything is splendid 
D            C#m5-/7 
Meeting you today 
    F#m       Bm5-/7       B7    E4/7   E7 A7 
Has given me a wonderful idea  here  I stay 

Melody 
D             F#m7  
It's a funny thing   
G         C#7 F#m           B7  Em           A7 
I look at you,    I get a thrill    I never knew. 
D          Bm7  G  D9 A7 Em7 A4/7  D Fdim Em7 G/B A4/7 A7 
Isn't it a pity we never met   before 
D              F#m7 
Here we are at last  
G            C#7  F#m           B7 Em            A7 
It's like a dream,   the two of us    a perfect team 
D          Bm7  G  D9 A7 Em7 A4/7 D Em7 
Isn't it a pity we never met   before 

Bridge  
F#m    C#7 Bm  F#m     Bm7         C#7  C#m5-/7 Bm5-/7 
Imagine all the lonely years we've wasted 
F#m           F#m7     B7 
You with the neighbors, I at silly labors  
A6    F#m     Bm7 E7 
What joys untasted 
D9          D6/9  Bm5-/7             A7 
You reading Heine, me somewhere in China 
D                F#m7 
Let's forget the past  
G           C#7  F#m              B7 Em                A7 
Let's both agree     that I'm for you   and you're for me 
D               Bm7     G      D9    Em7 A4/7    D 
And it's such a pity we never, never met   before 

Bridge  
F#m     C#7 Bm  F#m     Bm7         C#7   C#m5-/7  Bm5-/7 
Imagine all the lonely year's we've wasted 
F#m           F#m7    B7 
Fishing for salmon, losing at backgammon 
A6    F#m    Bm7 E7 
What joys untasted 
D9            D6/9  Bm5-/7             A7 
My nights were sour spent with Schopenhauer 
D                F#m7 
Let's forget the past  
G           C#7  F#m              B7 Em                A7 
Let's both agree     that I'm for you   and you're for me 
D               Bm7     G      D9    Em7 A4/7    D 
And it's such a pity we never, never met   before
