I Let A Song Go Out Of My Heart Chords & Lyrics - Duke Ellington

[A Section]

[F6] [Bb7] FMaj7 [Dm7]
I let a song go out of my heart
[Am7]It w[D7]as the sweetest [Am7]melo[D7]dy
I [Gm]know I[Am7] los[Bb]t h[Bdim]eaven [C7]'cau[Bb7]se
FMaj7 [Dm7] [Gm7] [C7]
you were the song

[A Section]

[F6]Since you and [Bb7]I have
FMaj7 Dm7
drifted apart
[Am7]Life [D7]doesn't mean a thing to [Am7]me [D7]
[Gm] [Am7] [Bb] [Bdim] [C7] [Bb] FMaj7 [D7b9]
Please come back, sweet music, I know I was wrong

[B Section]

[Gm7] [C7] FMaj7 [Em7b5]
Am I too late to make amends?
You [A7]know that [Dm]we were meant to [Bbm7]be [Eb7]more [Ab7]than just
[Db7]friends, [C7#5]just friends

[A Section]

[F6] [Bb7] FMaj7 [Dm7]
I let a song go out of my heart
[Am7]Believe me, d[D7]arlin', [Am7]when I s[D7]ay
[Gm] [Am7] [Bb] [Bdim] [C7] [Bb7] FMaj7 [C7] FMaj7
I won't know sweet music until you return some day
