Track 5 of 8 on the album "Souvenir Album" (1947) [Intro] A7 D [Verse 1]
       D                   G
Angels sing sweet songs of love, dear

         A7            D
Gates of heaven stood ajar

        D              G
All the seven days you loved me

        A7            D
God was looking from afar

       D                  G
And he knows my heart was honest

        A7          D
That it wanted only you

        D             G
But you went away and left me

         A7             D
Now, I'm lonely and I'm blue
[Chorus]
           D              G
Though the days were only seven

          A7                 D
That your heart beat with my own

          D             G
They were seven days of heaven

         A7          D
Sweetest heaven ever known
[Interlude] A7 D [Verse 2]
           D               G
There were many things, my darling

       A7            D
That I wanted you to know

       D             G
But my soul was so excited

     A7              D
I forgot to tell you so

         D               G
Please believe me, for I love you

      A7                  D
And I miss you, dear sweetheart

          D                G
Won't you come back now? I need you

        A7               D
Tell me that we'll never part
[Chorus]
           D              G
Though the days were only seven

          A7                 D
That your heart beat with my own

          D             G
They were seven days of heaven

         A7          D
Sweetest heaven ever known
