It's dark on  observatory  hill

       G     G/F#    Em    B5+     Em7        Edim           A 
We'll stroll to the hilltop where college sweethearts go 
    D6          B7            E7/9               A7/13 
And look at the lights on the campus down below 
        D   F#m       Bm7 C#m5-/7  B7 
We'll learn what  astronomy  is  for 
Cdim   E7  Bm5-/7      E7      Cdim      E    D9 Edim E7 
We'll learn what the stars can have in store

Bridge 
F7       Bb          Gm         Eb             Cm 
And I'd like to recite you a poem that I wrote 
   F7          Cdim        Gdim         F7 
It tells why I think you're wonderful 
Bb            Gm         Cm                Edim 
Then from afar we can hear a sweet guitar 
      Bb       C#7       F#7    A7 
While voices are harmonizing 
    D    F#m      Bm7   C#m5-/7  B7 
We don't have to know   arithmatic 
Cdim E7   Bm5-/7 E7    Cdim        E  D9 Edim E7 
To   figure why you and I would click 
     G    G/F#    Gdim   Edim        D       F#7        B7 
My heart tells me this:       your lips were meant to kiss 
Cdim      Em7 G/B   A7  Edim    D         
When it's dark on observatory    hill
