------------------------------------------------------------------------------- A night in summer long ago - Mark Knopfler ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tabbed by: Pavel Fomenkov Email: fffoma@gmail.com A C#m D My lady may I have this dance Bm E Forgive a knight who knows no shame A C#m D My lady may I have this dance Bm E A And lady may I have your name D You danced upon a soldiers arm Bm E And I felt the blade of love so keen A C#m D And when you smiled you did me harm Bm E A And I was drawn to you, my queen A C#m D Now these boots may take me where they will Bm E Though they may never shine like his A C#m D There is no knight I would not kill Bm E A To have my ladys hand to kiss C#m D Yes and they did take me through the hall Bm E To leave me not one breath from you A C#m D And they fell silent one and all Bm E A And you could see my heart was true A C#m D Then I did lead you from the hall Bm E And we did ride upon the hill A C#m D Away beyond the city wall Bm E A And sure you are my lady still C#m D A night in summer long ago Bm E The stars were falling from the sky A C#m D And still, my heart, I have to know Bm E A Why do you love me, lady, why?
