| G | C | D | G | |
| Last night by my window so lonely, as I men | tioned 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, descendi | ng to me from the sky, o | n 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 whisp | ered I love only you, just you. |
| G | C | |
| But you broke ever promise little darling |
| D | G | |
| now the string | s on my heart are broken too. |
| G | C | |
| Oh why did you have to deceive me. |
| D | G | |
| Oh why di | d you prove so untrue, I'm blue | . |
| G | C | |
| Every string on my heart you have broken |
| D | G | |
| and darli | ng my heart is broken too. |
| G | C | D | G | |
| Then I dreamed of a golden tomorrow, of a li | fe filled with treasur | es for you, just you. |
| G | C | D | G | |
| As the moon kissed the gold in your curls dear, you t | old | me you'd always be true. |
| G | C | D | G | |
| But the dawn broke your vows little darling. I know I c | an | never have you, we're throug | h |
| G | C | D | G | |
| Oh that old rising sun that awoke me, so wea | ry in my mind and so | blue. |
