Your beauty is beyond compare 

     B                C#m7 
With flaming locks of auburn hair

And there's nothing I can do to keep 

     B 
From crying when he calls your name

But you don't know what he means to me

You could have your choice of men 

    B             C#m 
But I could never love again

He's the only one for me
