I Concentrate On You

Words & Music by Cole Porter
Recorded by Frank Sinatra, 1961
From "Broadway Melody of 1940"


Em        B+        A6/9    B7
Whenever skies look gray to me,

    Em         B+     Em6   F#m     
And trouble begins to brew,

B7             Em6        B7      Am  Am7  F#7    
  Whenever the win - ter winds become too strong, 

G7  F#7  Bm7-5   B7   B7/F#  Em  A  Em  A
I   con - cen - trate  on    you.


Em            B+        A6/9         B7
When fortune cries "Nay, nay" to me,

     Em       B+             Em6     F#m
And people declare "You're through,"

B7             Em6      B7     Am   Am7 F#7
  Whenever the blues become my on - ly songs,

G7  F#7  Bm7-5   B7   B7/F#  Em   A   Em
I   con - cen - trate  on    you.



Bridge:

         A         Am7       Em
On your smile, so sweet, so tender

         B7  F#m  B7  Em6       Em
When at first my kiss you do decline

        A            Am7               Em
On the light in your eyes when you surrender

          F#7  Em6 F#7  Em6   B7
And once again our arms intertwine



    Em      B+      A6/9        B7
And so when wise men say to me

     Em          B+         Em6   A6/9  F#m    B7
That love's young dream never comes true,

Em     B+        Em6       B7      Am Am7  F#7   
   To prove that even the wise men can be wrong,

G7  F#7  Bm7-5   B7   B7/F#  Em  Am7 Em
I   con - cen - trate  on    you.
