A cigarette that bears a lipstick's traces, an airline ticket to romantic places

And still my heart has wings, these foolish things, remind me of you 
D6           Bm7               Em9       A7 
A tinkling piano in the next apartment 
D6               Bm7                 E9      A7 
Those stumblin' words that told you what my heart meant 
   D9          D7/13-  G6             B7            E7     A7                D       C#7    
A fairground's painted swings, these foolish things, remind me of you 
Bridge 
F#m7     Bm6    C#9  F#m              F#m7 
You came, you saw, you conquered me 
A    F#m7    Bm7     E9       A7      Cdim     Em7   A7                
When you did that to me I knew somehow this had to be 
D6            Bm7                Em9    A7                      D6                Bm7      E9       A7 
The winds of March that make my heart a dancer a telephone that rings but who's to answer? 
D9         D7/13-        G7M           B7          E7       A7   D    Cdim   Em7   A7 
Oh, how the ghost of you clings, these foolish things, remind me of you

D6                      Bm7                 Em9              A7 
The scent of smouldering leaves the wail of steamers 
D6                      Bm7                E9              A7 
Two lovers on the street who walk like dreamers 
D9         D7/13-        G7M           B7          E7       A7       D    Cdim   Em7 A7 
Oh how the ghost of you clings these foolish things remind me of you 
F#m7        Bm6      C#9   F#m           F#m7 
How strange,    how sweet,    to find you still 
A      F#m7      Bm7     E9          A7     Cdim        Em7     A7 
These things are dear to me, they seem to bring so you near to me

The sigh of midnight trains in empty stations, silk stockings thrown aside, dance invitations  
D9         D7/13-        G7M           B7          E7       A7        
Oh, how the ghost of you clings, these foolish things, remind me of you 
D    Cdim   Em7   A7  D    Cdim   Em7   A7   D    Cdim   Em7   A7 
Remind me of you,      remind me of you,        remind me of you
