G9 G G+7 G C9
And now the purple dusk of twilight time
B7 E E-9 E E7
Steals across the meadows of my heart.
Am Cm G G/F# Em
High up in the sky the little stars climb,
F# F#7 D Fdim D7
Always reminding me that we're a - part.
G9 G G+7 G C9
You wandered down the lane and far away.
B7 E E-9 E E7
Leaving me a song that will not die.
Am Cm G G/F# Em
Love is now the stardust of yes-ter-day,
D7 Gdim Am7 Cdim G Cm G
The music of the years gone by.
(Melody:)
G+7 G G9 Cmaj7 C Am C F
Sometimes I wonder why I spend the lonely night
F7 G G/F# Em Bm7-5 E7
Dreaming of a song. The mel-o-dy haunts my reverie,
Am7 E7 Fdim Am7 Fdim Am
And I am once again with you.
D Fdim D7 D+ G6 D+ G6
When our love was new, and each kiss an in-spi-ra-tion,
A9 G A7 G
But that was long ago; now my consolation
D7 Am7 C D7 D+
Is in the stardust of a song.
Cmaj7 C Am C F7
Beside a garden wall when stars are bright,
Fm7/9 G G/F# Em Bm7-5 E7
You are in my arms; the nightingale tells his fairy tale
Am7 E7 Fdim Am7 Fdim Am
Of par-a-dise where ro-ses grew.
D A7 D7 G G/F# Em B+ F#7 B7
Though I dream in vain, in my heart it will re-main:
C C/B E7 Am7
My stardust mel-o-dy
D7 Cdim Cdim(IV) G Am7 alt Cm G6
the memory of love's re - frain.
