Harlem Nocturne

	  		  Am       A9   Am  Am7+  Am       C  Am    C   Am    Dm 
A nocturne for the blues played on a bro - ken heart string 
 
Dm           D9  Dm  Dm7+    F7      E7   Fdim Am 
It's wailing out the news my baby is gone from me. 
 
 
Am           A9 Am  Am7+    Am    C    Am    C   Am    Dm 
Dark shadows in the rain, a tel - e - phone that won't ring 
 
Dm              D9  Dm  Dm7+    F7          E7  Fdim Am 
Just mem - o - ries re- main of lovers that used to  be. 
 
            A        Cdim G        A     Cdim  G 
I miss the laughs and the fun, my spot in the sun 
 
     A    Cdim G   Cdim    A      A7 
When I was the one one and only. 
 
     D   Fdim   C            D   Fdim  C     
The music and lights, those wonderful nights 
 
     E      D  C  Bb   G#7 F#7   E7 
The morn - ing is the time we'd kiss. 
 
      A        Cdim G       A     Cdim  G 
The laughs and the fun, my days in the sun, 
 
        A   Cdim  G       Cdim  A      A7 
They're over and done, and I'm lonely; 
 
 
       D    Fdim  C       D        Fdim   C 
Don't ask me to hide the heartbreak in - side 
 
     E       D    C   Bb  G#7  F#7  E7   Fdim  Am 
The gleam - ing spark is gone, the light went dark. 
 
 
Am           A9  Am   Am7+  Am           C   Am  Dm 
This nocturn for the blues took all and left me nothing 
 
Dm       D9  Dm  Dm7+      F7          E7 Fdim Am 
Nothing but the blues 'til baby comes back to  me
