Long Ago And Far Away

Words & Music by Ira Gershwin & Jerome Kern, 1944
Recorded by Glenn Miller, 1944


A6   F#m7 Bm7-5    E7    AM7
Long  a -   go and far away,

   Bm7-5      E7       A6
I dreamed a dream one day,

    Bm7-5 E7   A6       F#7    Bm7-5 E7
And  now that dream is here be-side  me;

C   Am     Dm7       G7     CM7
Long  the skies were o-ver-cast,

     B7                  E+7
But now the clouds have passed;

      C#m7-5   Bm7-5   E7
You're here at last!



A6     F#m7 Bm7-5    E7      AM7
Chills run   up and down my spine;

  Bm7-5     E7       A6
A-lad-din's lamp is mine;

    Bm7-5  E7  A6            F#7 Bm7-5 E7
The dream  I dreamed was not de - nied me.

Em7     A9sus4         A7 DM7    Dm6
Just one look and then I knew

     G9     A6/C# Cdim Bm7-5   E7      A6   Bm7-5  E7
That all I longed  for  long a-go was you.


Last time:

     G9     A6/C# Cdim Bm7-5   E7      A6   D9  BbM7  A
That all I longed  for  long a-go was you.
