[Hello Dolly]

[ Gdim7 = xx2323 ; Cdim7 = xx1212 ; Abdim7 = xx0101 ]

Girls: Hello, Rudy, well hello, Harry 
It's so nice to be back home where I belong 
You are looking swell, Manny, I can tell, Danny 
You're still glowin', you're still crowin' 
You're still goin' strong 

/ G - Em - / Gmaj7 Gdim7 Am7 D7 / Am Am7 Dm7 Am / 
   / Am7 D7 / Gdim7 D7 /

I feel the room swayin', for the band's playin' 
One of my old favorite songs from way back when, so
Bridge that gap, fellas, find me an empty lap, fellas 
Dolly'll never go away again 

/ G - Em - / Dm7 G7 Cmaj7 Cdim7 / Em Bm Em Bm / A7 Am7D7 G D7 / 

{Refrain}
Boys: Hello, Dolly, well, hello, Dolly, 
It's so nice to have you back where you belong 
You're looking swell, Dolly, we can tell, Dolly
You're still glowin', you're still crowin' 
You're still goin' strong

Boys: We feel the room swayin' for the band's playin' 
One of your old favorite songs from way back when, so
Girls: Here's my hat fellas, I'm stayin' where I'm at, fellas 
Boys: Promise you'll never go away again 

Girls: I went away from the lights of Fourteenth Street
And into my personal haze
But now that I'm back in the lights of Fourteenth Street
Tomorrow will be brighter than the good old days

/ Am7 D7 G Em7 / Am7 D7 Gmaj7 Abdim7 / Am7 D7 G Gdim7 / D A7 Am7 D7 /

Boys: Hello, well hello, Dolly, well hello, hey look there's Dolly
Girls: Glad to see you Hank, let's thank my lucky star
You're lookin' great, Stanley, lose some weight, Stanley? 
Dolly's overjoyed and overwhelmed and over par 

Boys: I hear the ice tinkle, see the lights twinkle 
And you still get glances from us handsome men
Girls: So, golly gee, fellas, find me a empty knee, fellas 
All: Dolly'll never go away again 

{Refrain}

Boys: I feel the room swayin' for the band's playin' 
One of our old favorite songs from way back when, so
Show some snap, fellas, find her an empty lap, fellas 
All: Dolly'll never go away again 

{Refrain}

Boys: I hear the ice tinkle, see the lights twinkle 
And you still get glances from us handsome men, so
Girls: Mm, wow wow wow, fellas, look at the old girl now, fellas 
All: Dolly'll never go away, Dolly'll never go away
Dolly'll never go away again
