4 = blow hole 4-4 = draw hole 4’ = bend< = slide in
Deep mu-sic fills the night
Deep in the heart of Har-lem.
And though the stars are bright,
The dark-ness is taunt-ing me.
Oh, what a sad re-frain,
A noc-turne born in Har-lem.
That mel-an-cho-ly strain,
For-ev-er is haunt-ing me.
The mel-o-dy clings
A-round my heart strings
It won't let me go when I'm lone-ly.
I hear it in dreams
And some-how it seems
It makes me weep
and I can't sleep.
An in-di-go tune
It sings to the moon.
The lone-some re-frain of a lov-er.
The mel-o-dy sighs
It laughs and it cries.
A moan- in' blues that
Wails the long night thru.
Tho' with the dawn it's gone.
The mel-o-dy lives ev-er
For lone-ly hearts to learn
Of love in a Har-lem noc-turne.
