-1 2 -2* 2 -1
Twi-light soon will fade
-1 2 -2* 3 2 -2* 2 -1
I’ll meet you at the mas-quer-ade
-5 -5 -5 -5 -6* 6
While our hearts are swing-ing
5 6 -5 -4 -5 4 -3 3…
To vi-o-lins sing-ing till dawn

-1 2 -2* 2 -1
Lov-er dressed in jade
-1 2 -2* 3 2 -2* 2 -1
Hold me tight at the mas-quer-ade
-5 -5 -5 -5 -6* 6
If the mus-ic halts, dear
5 6 -5 -4 -5 5 -3 3…
Then my heart will waltz, dear, right on

-2* 3* -3* -4 4* -5
Twelve o’clock is chim-ing
-3* -4 -6* -2* 3* -3*
On the clock up a-bove
-3 -4 4* -5 6 -6* 5*
Now if you’ll un-mask your heart
-5 -6* 6 6 -5
I’ll love you, love you

-1 2 -2* 2 -1
Mid-night shad-ows fade
-1 2 -2* 3 2 -2* 2 -1
No one else at the mas-quer-ade
-5 -5 -5 -5 -6* 6
Ev-`ry-thing is through, dear
5 6 -5 -4 -5 5 -3 3…
But my love for you, dear, lives on
