 C#
So dear friends
      F#       C#
Your love has gone
C#             D#7   G#
Only tears to dwell upon

   C#  C#maj7 F#/A#
I dare not    say
C#/G#   F#  C#maj7 D#m7
As the wind must blow
     G#
So a love is lost
A love is won

 C#              F#    C#
Go to sleep and dream again
 C#   G#/C A#m
Soon your hopes
     D#m       G#
Will rise and then
     C#  G#/C A#m
From all this gloom
C#/G#     F#  C#maj7 D#7
Life can start  a  new
             G#7           F#
And there'll be no crying soon
