«It’s My Party»
(W. Gold — J. Gluck, Jr. — H. Wiener)
Chorus:
A A+
It’s my party and I’ll cry if I want to
D Dm
Cry if I want to, cry if I want to
A F#m Bm E A D A E
You would cry too if it happened to you
Verse 1:
A C
Nobody knows where my Johnny has gone
A D
But Judy left the same time
F A
Why was he holding her hand
B7 E
When he’s supposed to be mine
[repeat chorus]
Verse 2:
Play all my records, keep dancing all night
But leave me alone for a while
‘Til Johnny’s dancing with me
I’ve got no reason to smile
[repeat chorus]
[instrumental break over chorus chords (substitute F# for F#m)]
Verse 3:
Judy and Johnny just walked through the door
Like a queen and her king
Oh, what a birthday surprise
Judy’s wearing his ring
[repeat chorus; fade 2nd time]
