1. I dream of a golden moon and silver stars,

                            A                               D

    when first we met and danced to sweet guitars.

                         D7                                          G

    Music that breaks my heart, bringing me dear,

                   A            - A7          D                  - G - D

    golden memories          and silver tears.

 

               A                    D

Golden memories and silver tears,

             A                             D

are my lonely heart's souvenirs.

                       D7                                 G

All that you've left me are memories dear,

               A            - A7                  D       - G - D

golden memories        and silver tears.

2. And now, dear, my golden moon has turned to blue,

                           A                      D

    and all those silver stars are gone with you.

                    D7                                 G

    Old memory of love bringing me pain,

                   A              - A7                         D        - G - D

    oh, how sad to love        and love all in vain.
