[G] [Eb]
[D] [G] Your lips were like a [C] red and ruby chalice, [D] warmer [C] than the summer [F] night.
The [Bb] clouds were like an alabaster palace, [F] rising [Bb] to a starry [Eb] high.
[Ab] Each star its own [Eb] aurora borealis, [C] [Abm] suddenly you held [Ab] me [B] tight.
And [G] I saw the [Fm] midnight [Bbm] sun.
[Ab]
[C] [G] [C] I can't explain the silver rain that found me, or was that a moon with [B] fame?
[F]
The music [C] of the [F] universe around me, or was that a nightingale?
[Cm] [A]
[Ab] And then your arms [Eb] miraculously found [C] me, [Ab] suddenly the [Eb] sky grew [Db] pale.
I [G] could see the midnight sun.
[B]
[Gbm] Was there [Db] such a night?
[Em] It's a thrill [A] I still don't quite [B] believe.
[Bm]
[D]
[Gbm] But [A] after you were gone, [Am] there was still a summer star [Em] just on my sleeve.
[Ebm] [D]
[Ebm] [C] The flame of it [A] may dwindle like an ember, and the [C] stars forget [F] to shine.
[Bb] Oh, I may [F] see the meadow in December, I see white [Bbm] and crystalline.
[A] [Ab] But, oh my darling, [Cm] always I'll remember when your [Abm] lips were [Ebm] touching mine.
And [C]
I saw the [Gm] midnight sun.

Oh, I [Bb] may see the [Dm] meadow in December, I [Ab] see white [Bbm] and [A] crystalline.
[Ab] But, oh my darling, [Eb] always I'll remember [A] when your lips [Ab] were close to [G] mine.
[E] And I [G] saw the midnight [Gm] sun.
And [D] I saw [Gm] the midnight sun.
[C] And I [G] saw the midnight [D] sun.
[Gm]
Suddenly [F] we [Eb] were flying, [B] laughing, crying, [F] cause the sun was shining bright.
[A] Happy.
