[Verse 1]
Dadd4/E Gm9 Emaj7/F# Em7b5/F#
Your lips were like a red and ruby chalice, warmer than a summer night
Fmaj9 Dm9 Cm7#5 Bb9add13
The clouds were like an alabaster palace, rising to a snowing height
Csus4/A C#sus4/D Ebmaj9 F#maj7/G# F#maj7#5/G#
Each star its own Aurora Borealis, suddenly you held me tight
Dadd4/E Dmadd4/Eb Dadd4/E Dmadd4/Eb
And I could see the midnight sun
 
[Verse 2]
Gmaj7b5 Dadd4/E F4/G Gm9 C9add13
I can't explain the silver rain that found me, or was that a moonlit vale
Csus4/A A/B Bb/C Fmaj9 Abmaj7/Bb Abmaj7b5/Bb G/Bb
The music of the universe around me, or was that a nightingale
Csus4/A C#sus4/D Ebmaj7 Ebmaj9/G F#maj7/G# F#maj7#5/G#
And then your arms miraculously found me, suddenly the sky turned pale
Dadd4/E Dmadd4/Eb Dadd4/E
And I could see the midnight sun

[Bridge]
Bmaj9 Bm9 Dmaj7b5/E Amaj9/C# Bm7 F#m11 F#m7
Was there ever such a night, it's a thrill I still don't quite believe
D2/F# E2/G# Am9 C/D G2/B Eb/F Bbmaj9
But after you were gone, there was still some stardust on my sleeve

[Verse 3]
Dadd4/E F#m7#5 Gmaj9 Gm9 F#7#5#9
The flame of it may dwindle to an ember, and the stars forget to shine
Fmaj9 Gsus4/E Csus4/D Cm7#5 Eaug/Bb
And we may see a meadow in December, icy white and crystalline
Ebmaj9 Fm9 E7/G F#maj9/G# F#maj7#5/G#
But oh my darling always I'll remember, when your lips were close to mine
Dadd4/E Dmadd4/Eb
And we saw the midnight sun
