3 AM
Nowhere else to go
It’s 3 AM and I miss you so
Couples are departing soon they’ll all be gone
Now another day is starting
Still I linger on with

-6 5 -5 -5
Blue Cham-pagne
6 5 -5 -3 5 -2 1 -1
Pur-ple shad-ows and blue cham-pagne
4* 3* -3* -2 3 -3 1 -1
With the ech-oes that still re-main
4 -4 -3* -3 -2 -1 -2
I keep a blue ren-dez-vous

-6 5 -5 -5
Bub-bles rise
6 5 -5 -3 5 -2 1 -1
Like a foun-tain be-fore my eyes
4* 3* -3* -2 3 -3 1 -1
And they sud-den-ly crys-tal-lize
4 -4 -3* -3 -2 -1 -2
To form a vis-ion of you

-1 2 -2 3 -3 -3
All the plans we start-ed,
-1 2 -2 3 -3
all the songs we sang
4 4 4 4 4 4
Each lit-tle dream we knew
-1 2 -2 3 -3 -3
Seems to ov-er-take me
-1 2 -2 -3 -5
Like a boom-er-ang
5 5 5 -5 -5 5* 3* -3* 5
Blue is the spar-kle, gone is the tang

5 -6 5 -5
Each old re-frain,
6 5 -5 -3 4 -2 1 -1
Keeps re-turn-ing, as I re-main
4* 3* -3* -2 3 -3 1 -1
With my mem-‘ries and blue cham-pagne
4 -4 -3* -3 4 -5 -6…
To toast the dream that was you
