Key:
D D7 F#m The world is lyrical, because a
Fdim miracle
Em A7 D Has brought my lover to me;
Dm Fm Though she's some other place,
Em7 Fdim A7 D her face I see.
D D7 Fdim At night I creep in bed, and never sleep in bed,
Em7 A7 G/B A7 D But look above in the air,
Continues after the ad
Dm Fm Em7 Fdim And to my greatest joy, my love
A7 D is there.
D Em7 F#m7 Bm7 Bm7/E D5+ She dances overhead on the
Em E7 A Fdim ceiling near my bed,
A7 A D Em7 A In my sight, all through the
D night;
D Em7 F#m7 Bm7 Bm7/E I try to hide in vain
D5+ Em E7 A Fdim underneath my counterpane,
Em7 A7 D Edim A7 But there's my love up there
D D7 above.
Em Em7 A7 I whisper, "Go away, my lover,
D D6 it's not fair,"
Em Em7 A7 But I'm so grateful to discover,
D Cdim Em7 A7 that she's still there.
D Em7 F#m7 Bm7 Bm7/E D5+ I love my ceil -ing more,
Em E7 A Fdim since it is a dancing floor,
Em7 A7 D Just for my love.
