Oh! how, we danced on the night we were wed,
 6   -6   6   -5    6    -5    5  -4   5  -4    4
We vowed our true love, though a word was-n't said
 3    3    -3  4  -4     -3     3    -4  -4  4
The world was in bloom, there were stars in the

skies,
 6  -6   6  -5 6    -5   5    -4    5  -4   4
Ex-cept for a few, that were there in your eyes,
 3    3     -3    4  -4  -3  3  -4  -4   4   6
The night seemed to fade in-to blos-som-ing dawn,
 6   -6   6   -5 6  -5   5   -4     5   -4   4
The sun shone a-new but the dance ling-ered on,
  3    3 -3   4  -4   -3    3   -4  -4   4   6
Could we but re-live that sweet mo-ment sub-lime,
  6   -6    6  -5   6   -5  5 -4   5    3  4
We'd find that our love is un-al-tered by time.
 -6   -6 -6 -6   -6 -6  -6    6 -5  6
Dear, as I held you so close in my arms,
-5  -5   -5   -5   -5 -5 -5   5   -4    5
An-gels were sing-ing a hymn to your charms,
 5    -4     -4 -4  -4   -4  -4  -4   4   -3  4
Two hearts gent-ly beat-ing were mur-mur-ing low,
 -6  -5   -4  -3  4   -3  4
"My Darl-ing, I love you so".
