Stardust (Chromatic)

STARDUST
M: Hoagy Carmichael
W: Mitchell Parish
Key:C

9   10   9  -9  -8   8   -7  -8  -7    7
And now the pur-ple dusk of twi-light time
-6     6  -5*   6   8   -8  7* 6    5*
Steals a-cross the mea-dows of my heart
-5   -6 -7 -5  -6  -7   7   6    7     8
High up in the sky the lit-tle stars climb
-8  -4  -5* -7  -4  -5* -7    7   7  7
Al-ways re-mind-ing me that we’re a-part
9   10   9   -9  -8   8   -7  -8 -7  7
You wan-der down the lane and far a-way
-6    6 -5* 6  8    -8   7*   6   5*
Leav-ing me a song that will not die
-5   -6  -7  -5  -6   -7  7   6   7   8
Love is now the star-dust of yes-ter-day
7   -7  -6 7   6   -6    -5   5  
The mu-sic of the years gone by

Chorus:

-8     8   8* -9  8  -7 -6  -5
Some-times I won-der why I spend
-6   -7  10  10
The lone-ly night
-9     8 7* -6 -5
Dream-ing of a song.
-9   8  7 8   -8    10 -8  7  6
The mel-o-dy haunts my rev-er-ie
-7  8 -7  -6  7  6    -6   -5
And I am once a-gain with you.
6     -5  7    7   7
When our love was new, 
-5   6     7  -5 -5* 7   6  -7
and each kiss an in-spir-a-tion.
10   10  -9   8  -7 6    
But that was long a-go, 
-6* -8  -5 5* 5   -7
Now my con-so-la-tion
-5 7   7   -7   -9  -5 -7 7
Is in the star-dust of a song.
8   -9   8   -7 -6   -5    -6   -7    10   10
Be-side the gar-den wall, when stars are bright
-9   8  7* -6  -5
You are in my arms
-9   8    7   8    -8   10   -8  7  6
The night-in-gale tells his fair-y tale
-7  8 -7  -6    7    6  -6  -5   
Of par-a-dise where ros-es grew.
6      -5  7   -6* -6
Though I dream in vain, 
5  -5  6     7  8   10  -8   
in my heart it will re-main
8   -9   8    -7-6 -7
My star-dust mel-o-dy
7   -7 -6 7   6   -6  -5   5
The mem-o-ry of loves re-frain.

REPEAT
