A           F#m                D9 
We used to dwell in love's own palace 
  E          Em5-/7  E7    A 
A palace of dreams come true 
A                F#m              G#7 
Now that we're through, I bear no malace  
             C#m         G#m7  E7  Bm5-/7 Cdim  E7 E7/13 
Though we've called it a day,  all   I   can  say, is 
 A9        D6      Fdim       A          F#7      D9 Cdim   F#7 
Thanks for all the lovely delights I've found in your embrace 
    D6        Bm5-/7    Dm6       D9    E7/13 Fdim   A F#7 Dm6 E7 
I'm thankful, though I know it's ending all  too soon 
E7/13  A9       D6 Fdim     A      F#7   D9 Cdim   F#7 
And thanks for unforgetable nights I never can replace 
     D6      Bm5-/7  Dm6   D9    E7/13 Fdim      A  F#7 D Dm6 A 
And memories that linger like a haunting tune 

Bridge 

A7M  C#7             G#7                  C#7 
It is better to have loved you, Dear, and lost 
     D9   Cdim     Dm6   E7  A 
Than never to have loved at all 
A7M      C#7             F#m             Cdim 
Yes, it's better, for no matter what the cost 
  E        Bm5-/7    Fdim      D9     Dm6   E7 
I held the world in sway, an emperor for a day 
E7/13 A9      D6      Fdim      A      F#7     D9  Cdim  F#7 
And thanks again for taking me on the road to paradise 
    D6    Bm5-/7   Dm6     D9    E7/13 Fdim  D5+  Dm6 A    
We lost our way, still I must convey   my thanks
