A Night Like This

Caro Emerald


Tom: D

                Dm
From where you are
you see the smoke start to arise
                A7
where they play cards
And you walk over, softly moving passed the guards
The stakes are getting higher
         Dm
You can feel it in your heart
He calls you bluff
                                                A7
He is the ace you never thought he played that much
And now it's more than all this cards you want to touch
                                      Dm
You never know if winning this could really be enough

        A7                                 Dm
Take a look, beyond the moon you see the stars
      A7                                         Dm       D
And when you look around, you know the room by heart

               Em
I have never dreamed it
                A                    D
Have you ever dreamed a night like this?
            Em
I cannot believe it
             A                D
I may never see a night like this
                      Em            A
When everything you think is incomplete
                       D                
Starts happening when you are cheek to cheek
                 Em
Could you ever dream it?
               A                            Dm
I have never dreamed, dreamed a night like this.

         Dm
How many times
                                              A7
have I been waiting by the door to hear these chimes?

To hear that some one debonaire has just a arrived
                        Dm
And opened up to see my world before my eyes
                                                         A7
That silhouette creates an image on the night I can't forget

It has the scent of something special, I can't rest
                             Dm
If I resist temptation, oh I know for sure that I will lose the bet

  A7                                       Dm
I walk away and suddenly it seems I'm not alone
   A7                                      Dm           D 
In front of me he stands -- I stop, before he goes

               Em
I have never dreamed it
                A                    D
Have you ever dreamed a night like this?
            Em
I cannot believe it
             A                D
I may never see a night like this
                      Em            A
When everything you think is incomplete
                       D               
Starts happening when you are cheek to cheek
                 Em
Could you ever dream it?
               A                            Dm
I have never dreamed, dreamed a night like this
