Chords

This is a real nice song but most of the representations I ve looked at are done for the more advanced guitarists. This is what I ve come up with for the less advanced players. I hope you like it; enjoy G9: [3x0201] Am7: [x02213] [Verse 1]
    G9              G        C7
And now the purple dusk of twilight time, 

B7                               E        E7
steals across the meadows of my heart;

Am             Cm        G            Em
High up in the sky, the little stars climb, 

F#       F#7               D     D7
always reminding me, that we're apart.

     G9              G            C7
You wander down the lane and far away, 

B7                               E     E7
leaving me a song that will not die;

Am               Cm          G     Em
Love is now the stardust, of yesterday, 

    D7            Am        G     Cm   G
The music of the years gone by.
[Verse 2]
            CM7     C     Am
Sometimes I wonder why I spend, 

     C      F       F7                 G
the lonely night, dreaming of a song;

    Em       Bm           E7
The melody, haunts my reverie, 

    Am                   Am7    Am
and I am once again with you.th

Am7       D       D7
When our love was new, 

D         D7           G         D
and each kiss an inspiration;

     A            G     A7          G
But that was long ago, now my consolation, 

D7         Am7      C   D7
is in the stardust of a song.
[Verse 3]
 CM7      C     Am          C        F
Beside a garden wall, when stars are bright, 

F7                  G
You are in my arms,      

            Em    Bm7             E7
the nightingale tells his fairy tale.

  Am7  E7         Em7   Am7      Am
A paradise where roses bloom,

         D     A7 D7
Though I dream in vain, 

       G        Em    F#7     B7
in my heart it will remain,

C            E7      Am7
My stardust melody,          

    D7           C    D7    G      Cm    G
the memory, of love s re   frain.
