G9G G7+ GC9
And now the purple dusk of twilight time
B7EE-9 EE7
Steals across the meadows of my heart.
AmCmGG/F#Em
High up in the sky the little stars climb,
F#F#7DFdimD7
Always reminding me that we're a - part.
G9G G7+ GC9
You wandered down the lane and far away.
B7EE9EE7
Leaving me a song that will not die.
AmCmGG/F#Em
Love is now the stardust of yes-ter-day,
D7GdimAm7CdimGCmG
The music of the years gone by.
G7+ GG9Cm7CAmCF
Sometimes I wonder why I spend the lonely night
F7GG/F#EmBm7/5- E7
Dreaming of a song. The mel-o-dy haunts my reverie,
Am7E7FdimAm7FdimAm
And I am once again with you.
DFdimD7DG6 D+ G6
When our love was new, and each kiss an in-spi-ra-tion,
A9GA7G
But that was long ago; now my consolation
D7Am7CD7D
Is in the stardust of a song.
Cm7CAmCF7
Beside a garden wall when stars are bright,
Fm7/9 GG/F#EmBm7/5- E7
You are in my arms; the nightingale tells his fairy tale
Am7E7FdimAm7FdimAm
Of par-a-dise where ro-ses grew.
DA7D7GG/F#EmBF#7B7
Though I dream in vain, in my heart it will re-main:
CC/BE7Am7
My stardust mel-o-dy
D7Cdim Cº GAm7CmG6
the memory of love's re - frain.
