G                                          C                  D                         G
Last night by my window so lonely, as I mentioned your name in my prayers.
G                                           C                         D                           G
It seemed I could hear your voice calling,  from far out on that ocean of stars.
G                                            C                       D                         G
You whispered my name and I saw you, descending to me from the sky, on high.
G                                              C                        D                             G
I had fell fast asleep and was dreaming, then I woke on my trouble did I cry.

CHORUS
G                                                               C
You've played love on the strings of my heart dear
              D                                G
when you whispered I love only you, just you.
G                                               C
But you broke ever promise little darling
              D                                   G
now the strings on my heart are broken too.
G                                          C
Oh why did you have to deceive me.
         D                              G
Oh why did you prove so untrue, I'm blue.
G                                                   C
Every string on my heart you have broken
         D                                   G
and darling my heart is broken too.

G                                           C                     D                              G
Then I dreamed of a golden tomorrow, of a life filled with treasures for you, just you.
G                                                    C  D                                  G
As the moon kissed the gold in your curls dear, you told me you'd always be true.
G                                                       C D                            G
But the dawn broke your vows little darling.  I know I can never have you, we're through
G                                           C                   D                      G
Oh that old rising sun that awoke me, so weary in my mind and so blue.

repeat CHORUS
