Speak Low chords by Sarah Vaughan

Tuning: Standard (E A D G B E)

Verse 1:
   C          G
Speak low when you speak, love
  F     C        Am    E
Our summer day withers away too soon, too soon
   C          G
Speak low when you speak, love
  F     Am     E7
Our moment is swift, like ships adrift,
   F      Am     E   E7
we're swept apart, too soon

Verse 2:
   C       G
Speak low, darling, speak low
F        C          Am    E
Love is a spark, lost in the dark too soon, too soon
    F
I feel wherever I go
    C
That tomorrow is near,
      Am         E   E7
tomorrow is here and always too soon

Chorus:
F         C
Time is so old and love so brief
Am          E        E7
Love is pure gold and time a thief

Verse 3:
   C       G
We're late, darling, we're late
F       C             Am    E
The curtain descends, everything ends too soon, too soon
    F
I wait, darling, I wait
C       Am        E       E7
Will you speak low to me, speak love to me and soon

Chorus:
F         C
Time is so old and love so brief
Am          E        E7
Love is pure gold and time a thief
