THE PARTY'S OVER
Artist: Nat King Cole
-Words by Betty Comden and Adolph Green and Music by Jule Styne


The par-ty's o-ver
-3* -5* -6   7* 7
It's time to call it a day
-3*   -5* -6  7*  7 -6  7
They've burst your pret-ty bal-loon
-3*      -5*   -6   7*  7   -6  7
And tak-en the moon a-way
7*   8 -7* -7   -7* 8 -7*
It's time to wind up the mas-quer-ade
-7*   -7*-7*  8   -6  7*  7*  7*   7
Just make your mind up 
7     7    7    -7  -5
the pip-er must be paid
-6  -6  -6  6  -5*  -5

The par-ty's o-ver
-3* -5* -6   7* 7
The can-dles flick-er and dim
-3* -5*  -6   7*   7  -6   7
You danced and dreamed 
-3*  -5*   -6    7*
through the night
7       -6    7
It seemed to be right 
7*   8   -7* -7  -7*
just be-ing with him
8   -9*  8*  8    8*
Now you must wake up, 
-9* -9*  -9* -9*  7*
all dreams must end
-9    -9    -9   7
Take off your make-up, 
8     8   8    8   -6
the par-ty's o-ver
-6  -5*  -5  7  7
It's all o-ver, my friend
-6   -5* 7* 7*   -5  -5*  


The party's over
It's time to call it a day
'they’ve burst your pretty balloon 
and taken the moon away
Now you must wake up, all dreams must end
Take off your makeup, the party's over
It's all over, my friend

It's all over, my friend
