It happened at dawn… Happened in this park
                 Dm7Dm7  Dm7/A    Dm7Dm7   Dm7/A
A augmentedA guy and girl had dally till the moon     Was gone
G7G7      G7/D       G7G7       G7/D         C majorC
  Then it sprang and up the moment came the sun’s to blame their love
G6G6        C majorC  G6G6  C majorC
  Happened at dawn
        G6G6        C majorC         G6G6        Dm7Dm7   Dm7/A
They’d met the night before, the water’s shore, he played his horn across
   Dm7Dm7  Dm7/A  G7G7
the park
        G7/D        G7G7       G7/D         C majorC   G6G6
And so they strolled and spoke of years of old back when the folks would dance
    C majorC   G6G6
in the dark

 C majorC        G6G6         C majorC         G6G6
  They found a place to sit where all the lamps were lit,
        C majorC          Dm7Dm7    Dm7/A   Dm7Dm7  Dm7/A    G7G7
Their fingers grazed hands almost touched,     so long     Then
     G7/D        G7G7       G7/D        G7G7       G7/D
the sun a-rose and split the mist the guy and girl they stole a kiss it happened at the
     C majorC   G6G6  C majorC
break of dawn.
     G6G6   G7/D  G7G7  G7/D  G7G7
Right at dawn


C majorC   G6G6   C majorC   G6G6   C majorC


       G6G6          C majorC          G6G6       Dm7Dm7   Dm7/A
She slipped through his hand, she felt like sand, she wondered if her face
      Dm7Dm7   Dm7/A   G7G7
was sweet enough
    G7/D        G7G7        G7/D      C majorC  G6G6      C majorC   G6G6  C majorC
He dove in, he kissed her with a grin, then wondered if his lips   felt too rough

     G6G6      C majorC        G6G6        C majorC         G6G6   Dm7Dm7
Then the sun began its morning when the fountain won they thought it might be time to take
Dm7/A   Dm7Dm7   Dm7/A  G7G7
    a chance
    G7/D    G7G7    G7/D
Start a new life
    Cmaj7Cmaj7   G6G6     Cmaj7Cmaj7   G6G6    C majorC
With a new       ro - mance


       G6G6         Cmaj7Cmaj7        G6G6         C majorC         Dm7Dm7
"Yes all that fades away" that’s what folks like to say but these two kids they knew that lie
Dm7/A    Dm7Dm7  Dm7/A   G7G7
    was wrong     When,
        G7/D       G7G7        G7/D       G7G7
they said their love would stay alive it grew un - til the day they died
      G7/D       C majorC
it happened at the break of dawn
