  			Verse: 

F   G#7               Gm7 C 
We lived our little drama 
   F      A#7         Am7    G#m7 
We kissed in a field of white 
      Gm7           C 
And stars fell on Alabama 
      F   G#7  Gm7  C 
Last night 

F  G#7               Gm7  C   
I can't forget the glamor 
     F     A#7           Am7    G#m7    
Your eyes held a tender light 
        Gm7             C         
While stars fell on Alabama 
      F    A#m7    F 
Last night 


Bridge: 
D7        Gm7       C       Am7    Dm7 
I never planned in my imagination 
      Gm7  C          F  D7  
A situation so heavenly 
         Gm7        C                Am7  Dm7   
A fairy land where no one else could enter 
            Hm   E7             A7  Gm7  C    
And in the center just you and me 


Verse: 
 F  G#7               Gm7      C       
My heart beat like a hammer 
   F     A#7              Am7     G#m7 
My arms wound around you tight 
      Gm7             C7 
And stars fell on Alabama 
     F    A#m7    F 
Last night 

Bridge (Yep, once again, but now Louis Armstrong sings it): 
D7        Gm7       C       Am7    Dm7 
I never planned in my imagination 
      Gm7  C          F  D7  
A situation so heavenly 
         Gm7        C                Am7  Dm7   
A fairy land where no one else could enter 
            Hm   E7             A7  Gm7  C    
And in the center just you and me 


Verse (Ella sings, Louis does some back-vocal): 

 F  G#7               Gm7      C       
My heart beat like a hammer 
   F     A#7              Am7     G#m7 
My arms wound around you tight 
      Gm7             C7 
And stars fell on Alabama 
     F    A#m7    F 
Last night
