Lyrics
Here am (D)I with you
in a (A7)world of blue,
and we’re (D)danc ing to the tan go we loved when (A7)we first met;
while the (D)mus ic plays,
we re (A7)call the days
when our (D)love was a tune that (A7)we could n’t soon for (D)get.
As I (G)kiss your cheek,
we don’t (D)have to speak,
the vi o (A7)lins, like a (Em7)choir, ex (Ebdim7)press the de sire we used to (D)know
not long a (D7)go.
So just (G)hold me tight
in your (D)arms to night
and this Blue (A7)Tan go will (Em7)be our (Ebdim7)thrill ing mem o (A7)ry of (D)love.
