E                   A – E
Longfellow serenade,    such were the plans I’d made
A – E
For she was a lady, and I was a dreamer
A- E
With only words to trade
A
You know that I was born for a night like this

Warmed by a stolen kiss
E                   B7
For I was lonely, and she was lonely


E                   Emaj7 - E7
Ride, come on baby, ride
A      E    B7
Let me make your dreams come true
E                    Emaj7 – E7
I’ll sing my song, let me sing my song,
A    E    B7
let me make it warm for you


E                                        A
I’ll weave this web of rhyme upon this summer night
B7                                   E
We’ll leave this worldly time on his winged flight
A
Then come, and as we lay beside this sleepy glade
E              B7          E
There I’ll sing to you my longfellow serenade


| D – A/C# - E/B – A – E |


Longfellow serenade,    such were the plans I made
But she was a lady, as deep as the river
And through the night, we stayed
And in my way, I loved her as none before
Loved her with words and more
For she was lonely, And I was lonely


Ride, come on baby, ride
Let me make your dreams come true
I’ll sing my song, Let me sing my song
Let me make it warm for you


I’ll weave this web of rhyme upon this summer night
We’ll leave this worldly time on his winged flight
Then come, and as we lay beside this sleepy glade
There I’ll sing to you my longfellow serenade
