And now the pur ple dusk of (F9)twi light time

High up in the sky the (C)lit tle stars (Am7)climb,

(B)al ways re (B7)mind ing me that (Em)we’re (Ebdim)a (G7)part.

You wan dered down the lane and (F9)far a way,

(E7)leav ing me a (E7)song that will not (A7)die.

Love is now the star dust (C)of yes ter day,

the mu sic of the (G7)years gone (C6)by.

Some times I (F6)won der why I spend the lone ly (G7)night

(Fm6)dream ing of a song, the (C)mel o dy

(Em)haunts my (Em7)re ve (C#m7)rie

and I am once a gain with (F6)you,

when our (G)love (C#dim)was (G)new

and each kiss an (G7aug)in spir (C)a

(C6)tion.

But (D9)that was long a go: now (D7)my con so la tion is (G7)in the (Gsus4)star dust of a (Gdim)song.

(Caug)Be (F6)side a gar den wall when stars are (Fm6)bright,

(Fm6)you are in my arms, the (C)night in gale

(Em)tells his (Em7)fair y (C#m7)tale

of pa ra dise, where ros es (F6)grew.

Tho’ I (D7)dream in (Dm7)vain,
