              (intro) F#  G#  G  F# 
 
                     B7 
In the still of the night 
 F#                B7 
As I gaze from my window 
 G#m                E 
At the moon in its flight 
                  F#    A      D7M  C#7 
My thoughts all stray       to you 
 
 F#                  B7 
In the still of the night 
 F#                   B7     F 
While the world is in slum...ber 
 Bbm                   Cm     F 
Oh, the times without number darling 
        Bbm   Am6    G#m    C# 
When I say    to     you 
 
 F#  F#5+      B     G#m     C#    F#       G#m   C# 
Do        you love me,   as   I   love you? 
 F#       F#5+    B 
Are       you my life to be 
 G#m7   C#         C#m 
My    dream come true? 
 Eb7          G#m 
Or will this dream of mine 
 Bm          F# 
Fade out of sight 
 
          Aº           G#m 
Like the moon growing dim 
        F#         Aº 
On the rim of the hill 
        G#m    C#          F# 
In the chill, still of the night 
 
(solo)
