Can't Hear the Music?

At Last

(slow version, jazz/horns)

(faster version, guitar)

Words by Mack Gordon, music by Harry Warren, 1942 (WB Music Inc., ASCAP); introduced by Glenn Miller and His Orchestra in the film Orchestra Wives, 1942; also performed by Etta James, B.B. King, and many others

At last
My love has come along
My lonely days are over
And life is like a song.

At last
The skies above are blue
My heart was wrapped up in clover
The night I looked at you.

I found a dream that I could speak to,
A dream that I can call my own.
I found a thrill to press my cheek to
A thrill that I have never known.

Oh, you smiled...
You smiled and then the spell was cast
Now here we are in heaven
For you are mine at last.
