Introdução: Verse 
 
G9   G    G7M  G        C9 
And now the purple dusk of twilight time 
 B7                   E     E7/9- 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 apart. 
    G9    G     G7M     G   C9 
You wandered down the lane and far away. 
 B7                   E   E7/9- E7  
Leaving me a song that will not die.  
 Am         Cm         G  G/F# Em 
Love is now the stardust of yesterday, 
  D7   Gdim     Am7     Cdim G  Cm G 
The music  of the years gone by. 
Melody 
G7M G   G9 C7M    C    Am      C       F  
Sometimes I wonder why I spend the lonely night 
 F7             
Dreaming of a song. 
       G      G/F#   Em  Bm5-/7  E7 
The melody haunts my reverie,               
 Am7    E7  Fdim       Am7    Fdim Am 
And I am once again with you. 
   D   Fdim  D7        D7M      G6    D7M   G6   
When our love was new, and each kiss an inspiration, 
  A9         G    A7      G 
But that was long ago, now my consolation  
D7        Am7      C   D7    D7M 
Is in the stardust of a song. 
  C7M    C     Am     C         F7 
Beside a garden wall when stars are bright,  
Fm7/9             G   G/F#    Em   Bm5-/7            E7 
You are in my arms; the nightingale tells his fairy tale 
 Am7    E7     Fdim     Am7   Fdim Am 
Of paradise where roses grew. 
           D    A7 D7     G    G/F# Em   B7M  F#7 B7 
Though I dream in vain, in my heart it  will remain 
   C           C/B E7 Am7     
My stardust melody 
    D7   Cdim   Cdim  G     Am7 Cm G6 
The memory of love's refrain.
