A7M           Bm7              E               A7M   Bm7 
Softly she comes,  whispers the breeze with her passing 
           E                     A7M   A7   D 
In secret love,     she is laughing 
           Dm6            A7M      D6  
Softly she comes in the night 
 
 
A7M           Bm7            E            A7M   Bm7 
Softly she sighs, sweetly she lies never sleeping 
           E               A7M   A7   D 
Her fragrance all in my keeping 
           Dm6            A7M      D6  
Softly she comes in the night 
 
 
E                                   D                A 
Down the darkened hall I hear her footsteps on the stair 
                              E 
Then she is in my arms once more 
 
 
A7M           Bm7            E            A7M   Bm7 
Then softly she goes, her shining lips in the shadows, 
         E               A7M   A7   D 
Whisper good-bye at my window 
           Dm6            A7M      D6  
Softly she goes in the dawn 
 
 
           Dm6            A7M      D6  
Softly she goes in the dawn
