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