Harry Richman - Puttin On The Ritz Chords

[Intro]

Fm Ab Bb C Fm Am Dm


[Verse 1]

Dm            C
Have you seen the well-to-do
C
Up on Lenox Avenue
C              Gm
On that famous thoroughfare
Gm               Eb
With their noses in the air
C             Dm
High hats and colored collars
C
White spats and fifteen dollars
Am
Spending every dime
Gm
On a wonderful time


[Chorus 1]

Fm
If you're blue and you don't know where to go to
Fm                                C
Why don't you go where Harlem sits
                    Eb C#
Puttin' on the ritz
Fm
Spangled gowns upon a bevy of high browns
Fm                              C
From down the levee, all misfits
                   Fm C#
Puttin' on the ritz
Dm                    Bb                  Eb
That's where each and ev'ry Lulu Bell goes
Ab
Ev'ry Thursday ev'ning with her spouse-os 
C#
Rubbing elbows
Fm
Come with me and we'll attend their jubilee
Fm                                    C
And see them spend their last two bits
                    C# Gm
Puttin' on the ritz
