Bbmaj7 Adim7 Gm7 Bb/F A+/Eb
A country dance was being held in a garden
Dm7 Gm7 Cm7 Am11 D7b9
I felt a bump and heard an "Oh, beg your par don"
Gm7 Bb7/A
Suddenly I saw
Bbmaj7 Cm7 Dm7 Dbm7
polka dots and moon beams
Cm7 Fsus2 Dm7 Db7#11 Cm7 F+
All around a pug-nosed dream
β« Verse:
Bbmaj7 Gm7 Cm7 Fsus2 A+/E
The music started and was I the perplexed one
Dm7 Gm7 Cm7 Am11 D7b9
I held my breath and said "May I have the next one "
Gm7 Bb7/A
In my frightened arms,
Bbmaj7 Cm7 Dm7 Dbm7
polka dots and moon beams
Cm7 Fsus2 Bbmaj7 Em7 A7
Sparkled on a pug-nosed dream
β« Bridge:
Dmaj7 Ebdim7 Em7 A9
There were questions in the eyes of other dancers
F#m7 Bm7 Em9 A7
As we floated over the floor
Dmaj7 Ebm7b5 Em7 A7
There were questions but my heart knew all the answers
Dm11 Gm7 Cm7 F7
And perhaps a few things more
β« Verse:
Bbmaj7 Gm7 Cm7 Fsus2
Now in a cottage built of lilacs and laughter
Bbmaj7 Ab/Bb Ebmaj7 Am11 D7b9
I know the meaning of the words "Ever af ter"

And I'll always see

When I kiss the pug-nosed dream
