        << Back to Nat King Cole Song List
Version 1
            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
Stardust – Nat King Cole
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.
