When I was just a little girl

CHORUS
F               
Que Sera, Sera,
Dm C                       
Whatever will be, will be;

(G) C
                                   
When I was just a child in school,
G7                                      
I asked my teacher, “What should I try?
Dm G Dm G                                      
Should I paint pictures? Should I sing songs?”
Dm G C C7                
This was her wise reply:

When I grew up and fell in love

I asked my sweetheart, what lies ahead?
Dm G Dm G                            
Will we have rainbows day after day?
Dm G C C7                       
Here's what my sweetheart said:
       
Chorus
      
(G) C
                              
Now I have children of my own
G7                                    
They ask their mother, what will I be
Dm G Dm G                           
Will I be handsome, will I be rich?
Dm G C C7             
I tell them tenderly.
