| We were | waltzing that night in Kentucky |
| G7 | |
| Beneath the beautiful harvest | moon |
| And I was the boy that was lucky |
| C | |
| But it all ended too | soon |
| As I sit here alone in the moonlight |
| C7 | F | |
| I see your | smiling | face |
| C | A7 | |
| And I long once more for | your em- | brace |
| D7 | G7 | C | |
| And the | beautiful Ken- | tucky | waltz. |
