(Music by Jerome Kern)

(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.
(I submit this beautiful jazz standard, usually recorded in instrumental
versions by almost everyone pre-fusion, in hopes that most jazz
standards will be submitted by others. Please feel free to email me with
