What goes on...again?  Here's Moon River, a piece I'm told Mancini wrote.  I'm 
not sure who was the original singer, there was a bunch...

Moon  river
        
Wider than a mile
               
I'm crossing you in style
         
Someday
       
Oh, dream maker
     
You heart breaker
             Fm7#b5   
Wherever you're go  -  ing
         
I'm go- ing your way
 
Two   drifters
          
Off to see the world
                 
There's such a lot of world
   Bm7b5     
To see
       
We're af- ter  the
Fm7#b5          
Same   rainbow's end
             
Waiting round the bend
          
My Huckleberry friend
             ,,[Hold]
Moon river    and me...
