The moon was yellow         and the night was young 
Am A9     Am  Asus4 Am A9    Am Dm D9 Dm Dsus4 Dm D9 Dm   
A smile brought  us  together, and I was wond'ring whether 
E7   E7/13- E7  Fdim E7/13- A9 Am 
We'd meet again some day. 
E7  Am       Bb9    Fdim  E        E7/9- E7   A9 
The moon was yellow          and a song was sung 
 Am  A9 Am Asus4 Am  A9 Am Dm  D9 Dm Dsus4 Dm D9 Dm   
That   vocal   inspiration   gave   me   the   inclination 
E7 E7/13- E7 Fdim  E7 Am Dm Am 
To give my heart away

Here we are.  Is our romance to continue 
E7  E7/13- Fdim E7/13- E7 E7/13- A9 Am 
Will  it   be   my  luck  to  win  you 
F     Dm7  Fdim  E7 
May I look that far 
E7  Am     Bb9    Fdim  E       E7/9-  E7   A9 
My love is mellow        and my hopes are strung 
Am  A9  Am Asus4 Am  A9  Am Dm     D9  Dm Dsus4 Dm D9   Dm   
Around   that   cupid   fellow.     Behold!   The   moon   is   yellow 
E7  E7/13- Bb9 Fdim  Am 
And the night is  young
