[Verse 1]
[G]One night, gaiety found its
way into my tower.
Suddenly, it was [D]filled with
happy people.
[G]Thin happy people,
fat happy people,
tall happy people,
short happy people,
old, young, many faces from many places.
My tower was filled with
nice neighborly sounds.
[Dm]The phon[G]e ringing,
knocks upon the door,
many conversations competing
madly for attention,
and the [F]heartwarming sound
of [G]people laughing out loud.
[F]We [G]talked mostly about New York.
the concerts we'd attended,
the humidity,
the plays we had seen,
the humidity,
the musicals on Broadway,
and the [C]humidity.[G]
[Dm]We had artists, we had businessmen,
we had musicians,
[G]and we had a wonderful waiter,
a waiter named Noah.
[C]Noah, Noah, where is Noah?
Where is Noah?
Where is Noah?
Where is Noah?
Here comes [F]Noah now.
Say, [G]Noah, [Bb]we're gonna
have some fun[F].[Bb]
[F]Empty [Gm]the ashtrays,
[Bb]get on some ice,

and the people are nice.
Clear off [Bb]the table, order some chow,

Come in. [G]Come in.
Hi, [F]Mike. Hi, [G]Kate.
Hi, Don. Hi, [F]Bess.
Please excuse this awful mess.
Hi, Sue. Hi, Joe.
Hi, Faye. Hi, Pete.
There's a chair over there by
the window [G]seat.
Nice place you got here.
I like it. Hot, isn't it? Awful.
Must be twenty minutes after[F].[C]
[F]That's a pretty dress you're wea[G]ring,
[F]Mrs. B.
Well, thank you, thank you,
[C]thank you, thank you, [F]dear
But where is your [G]husband, Mr. [F]B?
He's working at the [C]office, I [F]fear
And [Bb]he better be![G][C]
Tell me, [Dm]how's [G]your brother Ben[C]?
Brother [Dm]Ben [G]has a traveling yen
[C]He wants to leave the [G]mill in throngs
And [C]throng around the mill
He's [Dm]threatening to leave
[G]us and he [E]will[G][Dm][C][F]
