A Waltz For A Night

"A Waltz For A Night"
By Julie Delpy
From "Before Sunset" (2004)

This is a beautiful and simple little piece from one of my favorite movies. 
I tabbed it so my friend could play it while learning how to play guitar.

So the main parts of the song are called "Intro/Verse" and "Bridge 1". 
I only diagrammed them once, then throughout the song, 
I indicated when to play them over the corresponding lyrics.
There is only one major variation (besides some rhythmic changes) 
called "Bridge 2/Change", it is diagrammed in the middle of the song for you. 

Good Luck!

Tabbed/Arranged By Blaine Dunkley (Original Tab Credits to heymaria)

Let me sing you a waltz
Out of nowhere, out of my thoughts
Let me sing you a waltz
About this one night stand

You were for me that night

	(Intro/Verse)

Everything I always dreamt of in life
But now you're gone
You are far gone
All the way to your island of rain

	(Bridge 1)

It was for you just a one night thing

	(Intro/Verse)

But you were much more to me
Just so you know

I don't care what they say
I know what you meant for me that day

	(Bridge 2/Change)

I just wanted another try

	(Bridge 1)

I just wanted another night

	(Intro/Verse)

Even if it doesn't seem quite right
You meant for me much more
Than anyone I've met before

	(Bridge 1)

One single night with you little Jesse

	(Intro/Verse)

Is worth a thousand with anybody
I have no bitterness, my sweet
I'll never forget this one night thing

	(Bridge 1)

Even tomorrow, in other arms

	(Intro/Verse)

My heart will stay yours until I die

Let me sing you a waltz
Out of nowhere, out of my blues
Let me sing you a waltz
About this lovely one night stand
