KEY C


 -6b    6 -6b  6   5  -6b   6    -6b  6   5
There's a say-ing old says that love is blind

 -6b    6   -6b 6    5     -6  -6b -6  -6b   -5b
Still we're of-ten told, "Seek and ye shall find"

-6b 6   -6b   7  -7  
So I'm going to seek 

7 -6b -5b   5    5   4  -6b  6
a cer-tain lad I've had in mind

-6b   6  -6b 6   5     -6b  6   -6b   6   5
Look-ing ev-ry-where, have-n't found him yet

-6b   6  -6b  6  5  -6 -6b -6  -6b -5b
He's the big af-fair I can-not for-get

-5b -6 -6b 7 -7 7  -6b  -5b  5   5   4
 On-ly man I e-ver think of with re-gret

-6  -6    6 -6b -6b 6 -6b 6   5 -5b  6  5   5
I'd like to add his in-i-tial to my mon-o-gram

 -7  -7   7    7  -7  -7   -6  -6b  6    6    6
Tell me where is the shep-herd for this lost lamb


CHORUS

   7    -7  5   6 -6b 7   -7   7  7   -6
There's a some-bod-y I'm long-ing to see,

7  7    -6  -6b  -6   -6 -6b 6
I hope that he turns out to be

-6b   6   -5b     7   4  -4  5
Some-one who'll watch o-ver me

 7  -7 5   6   -6b  7     -7  -7  7   -6
I'm a lit-tle lamb who's lost in the wood

7   7  -6 -6b  -6  -6  -6b  6
I know I could al-ways be good

-6b 6   -5b     7   4  -4  4
To one who'll watch o-ver me

-4   5    6   6   7  -6  7   -7   
Al-though he may not be the man 

 7    -6     -7   7 -6  -7   7
some girls think of as hand-some

-6b 7  -6  -6b  7   -6   6   5
To my heart he car-ries the key

  4    -4   5   6    -6b   7  -7 -7  7    -6
Won't you tell him please to put on some speed

 7   7  -6  -6b  -6   -6 -6b 7
Fol-low my lead, oh, how I need

 -6b  6  -5b  7   4  -4 4
Some-one to watch o-ver me
