Sophisticated lady – Ella Fitzgerald

                            
They say - into your ear - ly life ro - mance came,
                              
And in this heart of yours burned a flame,
                             	   	       
A flame that flick-ered one day - and died      a - way.

                                    
Then, with dis - il - lu - sion deep in your eyes,
                                
You learned that fools in love soon grow wise.
                                                          
The years have changed you some - how.  I see you now...

(Bridge:)
             
Smo - king and drink - ing, 
                                                  / 
Nev - er think - ing of to - mor - row,          non - chal - ant,

             
Dia - monds shi - ning, 
                            //
Danc - ing, di - ning with some man in a res - tau - rant.
               
Is that all you real - ly want?

                                  
No, Soph - is - ti - ca - ted La - dy,
                                  
I know     you miss the love you lost long a - go,
                                
And when no - bod - y is high, you cry,
