When I was (C) just a little girl,

I asked my mother ”What will I (G7) be?

(Dm) Will I be (G) pretty? (Dm) Will I be (G) rich?

(Dm) Here’s what she (G) said to (C) me… (C7)

CHORUS

“Que (F) sera, sera. What(Dm)ever will (C) be will be;

The future’s not (G7) ours to see… que sera, (C) sera.”

(G) When I was (C) just a child in school,

I asked my teacher ”What should I (G7) try?

(Dm) Should I paint (G) pictures? (Dm) Should I sing (G) songs?

(Dm) This was her (G) wise (C) reply… (C7)

CHORUS

(G) When I grew (C) up and fell in love,

I asked my sweetheart, ”What lies (G7) ahead?

(Dm) Will we have (G) rainbows, (Dm) day after (G) day?

(Dm) Here’s what my (G) sweetheart (C) said… (C7)

CHORUS

(G) Now I have (C) children of my own,

They ask their mother ”What will I (G7) be?

(Dm) Will I be (G) handsome? (Dm) Will I be (G) rich?

(Dm) I tell them (G) tenderly (C) … (C7)
