> Can someone help me out with chords and composer info for "Everybody Loves Somebody?"  Is "Sometime" actually in the song title or just in the lyrics?

Dear Gary,
I have:
"Everybody Loves Somebody"  
1947. Ken Lane, music - Irving Taylor, lyrics.
Recorded by Peggy Lee and Frank Sinatra at this time.
It was revived in 1964 by Dean Martin, became a big hit and Martin's signature tune.
Although "sometime" occurs in the first line of the lyrics, it is not part of the song title.
Kind regards,
Bill.

"Everybody loves somebody"

Everybody loves somebody sometime
Everybody falls in love somehow
Something in your kiss just told me
That sometime is now

Everybody finds somebody someplace
There's no telling where love may appear
Something in my heart keeps saying
My someplace is here

If I had it in my power
I'd arrange for every girl to have your charms
Then every minute, every hour
Everybody would find what I found in your arms

Everybody loves somebody sometime
And though my dreams were overdue
Your love made it all worth waiting
For someone like you

If I had it in my power
I'd arrange for every girl to have your charms
Then every minute, every hour
Everybody would find what I found in your arms

Everybody loves somebody sometime
And though my dreams were overdue
Your love made it all worth waiting
For someone like you
