Piano Diana Blog: Monday Music Quote: Oscar Hammerstein

"A bell is no bell 'til you ring it,
A song is no song 'til you sing it,
And love in your heart
Wasn’t put there to stay -
Love isn’t love
'Til you give it away."
~Oscar Hammerstein, Sound of Music, "You Are Sixteen (Reprise)"

(Title: All The Things You Are)
(Music by Jerome Kern)
(Lyrics by Oscar Hammerstein II)
(1939)


Fm7  Bbm7     Eb7                       Abmaj7
You are the promised kiss of springtime 
         Dbmaj7                G7            Cmaj7
That makes the lonely winter seem long.
Cm7  Fm7     Bb7                     Ebmaj7 
You are the breathless hush of evening
        Abmaj7             Am7b5      D7
That trembles on the brink of a lovely
 Gmaj7
 song.

   Gmaj7         Am7
   You are the angel glow 
    D7              Gmaj7   
   That lights a star.
    Cmaj7        F#m7b
   The dearest things I know 
    B7                 E         C+
    Are what you are.

Fm7  Bbm7            Eb7           Abmaj7 
One day my happy arms will hold you
    Dbmaj7  Dbm7   Abmaj7           Bdim7  
And someday I'll know that moment divine
        Bbm7                      Eb7      Abmaj7
When All The Things You Are are mine.

Happy Valentine's Day!
