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.
