Verse 1

C                           F
The curtains of sorrow have descended
        G7                           C
O'er my world like the shades of the night
                         F
Alone with my memories I wander
     G7                        C
I am lost dear with no guiding light

Verse 2

                                   F
Oh where is the moon that shown so brightly
    G7                             C
And where are the stars that spell love
                              F
Where are the blue skies that linger
     G7                     C
That smile from the heavens above

Verse 3

                               F
You've broken my heart dear forever
  G7                        C
I don't seem to care now or try
                            F
My future seems dark and so dreary
  G7                           C
I can't keep the tears from my eyes

Verse 4

                                     F
There's a curtain of sorrow o'er the moonbeams
          G7                   C
There's a shade of gray sky up above
                               F
The starlight has lost all its splendor
    G7                         C
And I've lost the sweetheart I love
