Harlem Nocturne piano leadsheet with chords

Deep music fills the night deep in the heart of Harlem.

And though the stars are bright,

the darkness is taunting me.

Oh, what a sad refrain, a nocturne born in Harlem,

That melancholy strain forever is haunting me.

The melody clings around my heart strings.

It won't let me go when I'm lonely.

I hear it in dreams, and somehow it seems it makes me weep and I can't sleep.

An Indigo tune a sings to the moon the lonesome refrain of a lover.

The melody sighs, it laughs and it cries,

a moon in blue that I can't sleep.

An walks the long night through.

Though when the dawn is gone the melody lives ever for lonely hearts to learn

Of love in a Harlem nocturne.
