F Dm7 Gm7 C7

A country dance was being held in a garden

I felt a bump and heard an "Oh, beg your pardon"

Dm Bb7 F Am7 Abm7

Suddenly I saw polka dots and moonbeams

Gm7 C7 F D7 Gm7 C7

All around a pug-nosed dream

The music started and was I the perplexed one

I held my breath and said "May I have the next one?"

In my frightened arms, polka dots and moonbeams

Sparkled on a pug-nosed dream

There were questions in the eyes of other dancers

As we floated over the floor

A Bm7 E7

Dim2

There were questions but my heart knew all the answers

A D7 Gm7 C7

And perhaps a few things more

F Dm7 Gm7 C7

Now in a cottage built of lilacs and laughter

I know the meaning of the words "Ever after"

And I'll always see polka dots and moonbeams

When I kiss the pug-nosed dream
