^ELongfellow serenade,^A ^E ^A ^Esuch were the plans I'd made, ^A ^E ^A ^E For she was a lady, and I was a dreamer, ^A ^E with only words to ^E7trade. You know that I was ^Aborn for a night like this.^D ^A Warmed by a stolen kiss, for I was ^Elonely..^A ^E and she was ^B7lonely.

^ERide, come on baby, ^Emaj7ride ^E7 let me make your d^Areams..c^Eome..t^B7rue. I'll sing my ^Esong..let me sing my ^Emaj7song.. ^E7 let me make it ^Awarm..^Efor..^B7you. I'll ^Eweave this web of rhyme upon this summer ^Anight. We'll ^B7leave this worldly time on his winged ^Eflight. Then come, and as we lay, beside this sleepy ^Aglade.. E B7 E |D A E A|E |E | There I'll sing to you..my Longfellow serenade.

^ELongfellow Serenade,^A ^E such were the plans I made.^A ^E But she was a lady..as deep as the river..^A ^E And through the night, we ^E7stayed. And in my way, I ^Aloved her as none before. Loved her with words and more..for she was ^Elonely..^A ^E and I was ^B7lonely.

^ERide, come on baby, ^Emaj7ride ^E7 let me make your d^Areams..c^Eome..t^B7rue. I'll sing my ^Esong..let me sing my ^Emaj7song.. ^E7 let me make it ^Awarm..^Efor..^B7you. I'll ^Eweave this web of rhyme upon this summer ^Anight. We'll ^B7leave this worldly time on his winged ^Eflight. Then come, and as we lay, beside this sleepy ^Aglade.. E B7 E |D A E A|E |E | There I'll sing to you..my Longfellow serenade.
