Starlight

       A             B
I said oh my, what a marvelous tune
           E                          Dbm
It was the best night, never would forget how we moved
    A               B
The whole place was dressed to the nines, 
            E               Dbm
And we were dancing, dancing
                   A        B
Like we're made of starlight
                   E      
Like we're made of starlight


A                                        B
I met Bobby on the boardwalk, summer of '45
A                                    
 Picked me up, late one night at the window
        B
He was 17 and crazy, running wild, wild
A                                                             
 Can't remember what song it was playing 
        B
When we walked in
                   A                                           
The night we snuck into a yacht club party
              B                  B -once                                          
Pretending to be a duchess and a prince


                                                                           
          A          B
I said oh my, what a marvelous tune
           E                          Dbm
It was the best night, never would forget how we moved
    A               B
The whole place was dressed to the nines, 
            E               Dbm
And we were dancing, dancing
                   A                   B
Like we're made of starlight, starlight
                   E              Dbm    
Like we're made of starlight, starlight


A                                           
He said, look at you worrying so much about 
B
Things you can't change
A
You'll spend your whole life singing the blues 
            B
If you keep thinking that way
A                                        B
He was trying to skip rocks on the ocean saying to me
                  A
Don't you see the starlight, starlight?
                B
Don't you dream impossible things?


        A          B
Like oh my, what a marvelous tune
           E                          Dbm
It was the best night, never would forget how we moved
    A               B
The whole place was dressed to the nines, 
            E               Dbm
And we were dancing, dancing
                   A                   B
Like we're made of starlight, starlight
                   E              Dbm    
Like we're made of starlight, starlight


A       B 
Ooh ooh he's talking crazy
A       B
Ooh ooh dancing with me
A       B
Ooh ooh we could get married
A                          B 
Have ten kids and teach 'em how to dream

Interlude (2x): A B E Dbm 

        A          B
Like oh my, what a marvelous tune
           E                          Dbm
It was the best night, never would forget how we moved
    A               B
The whole place was dressed to the nines, 
            E               Dbm
And we were dancing, dancing
                   A                   B
Like we're made of starlight, starlight
                   E              Dbm    
Like we're made of starlight, starlight
                   A                   B
Like we're made of starlight, starlight
                E             Dbm
Like we dream impossible dreams
     A                   B
Like starlight, starlight
                E             Dbm
Like we dream impossible dreams
                  A                   B
Don't you see the starlight, starlight
                  E
Don't you dream impossible things
