	        A             F#7         Bm7/5-   Dm6      Cdim 
I recall the story, that night of love and glory, 
 
  A                   A7             D6   Dm6 
A night that left my heart romantic scars; 
 
   A     A9  A       F#7      Bm7/5-                Dm6 
We stood so near to Heaven that I reached clear to Heaven 
 
     E7            E7/5+        A6 
And gathered you a handful of stars. 
 
 
  A              F#7       Bm7/5-  Dm6    Cdim 
Sweet remembered hour when love began to flower 
 
      A                     A7                D6   Dm6 
With moonlight through the trees like silver bars; 
 
     A     A9    A   F#7      Bm7/5-                Dm6 
And as the moon grew older, I reached across your shoulder 
 
    D9             E7/5+         A6 
And gathered you a handful of stars. 
 
 
 
Bridge: 
 
A  A9    A   C#m  C#m7  C#m      C#m7     G#         G#7     G# 
I placed my fingertips upon your lips and stars fell in your eyes; 
 
C#m             C#m7         C#7 
Moonglow made a halo of your hair, 
 
 E           Fdim              F#m            B7 
Suddenly you looked at me and dreams began to rise -- 
 
E         E9    E    E9    E   E7         E7/6    E7 
Oh, what things un - spo - ken trem - bled in the air. 
 
 
       A              F#7         Bm7/5-      Dm6      Cdim 
Our hearts were madly beating, and then our lips were meeting, 
 
     A               A7             D6   Dm6 
And Venus seemed to melt right into Mars. 
 
    A     A9    A     F#7          Bm7/5-          Dm6 
And while we stood caressing, blue Heaven sent a blessing -- 
 
   D9       E7/5+        A6 
A shower of handful of stars.
