A Handful Of Stars

(início)

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.
