[Intro]
Cmaj7 Am7 Gm7 C7 Fmaj7 E7 Am7 Bb7
Cmaj7 C7 Fmaj7 Bb7
Cmaj7 Am7 Dm7 G7
[Verse 1]
Cmaj7 Am7
That certain night
Gm7 C7
The night we met
Fmaj7 E7 Am7 F7
There was magic abroad in the air
Cmaj7 Am7 F Bb7
There were angels dining at the Ritz
Cmaj7 Am7 Dm7 G7 Cmaj7 Gm G
And a nightingale sang in Berkeley Square
[Verse 2]
Cmaj7 Am7 Gm7 C7
I may be right, I may be wrongF
Fmaj7 E7 Am7 F7
But I'm perfectly willing to swear
Cmaj7 Am7 F Bb7
That when you turned and smiled at me
Cmaj7 Am7 Dm7 G7 Cmaj7
A nightingale sang in Berkeley Square
[Bridge 1]
Emaj7 C#7 F#m7 B7 G#m7
The moon that lingered over London town
F#7 F#m7 B7
Poor puzzled moon, wore such a frown
Emaj7 C#7 F#m B7
How could he know we two were so in love?
E7 C#m7 Dmaj7 F7
The whole darn world seemed upside down
[Verse 3]
Cmaj7 Am7 Gm7 C7
The streets of town were paved with stars
Fmaj7 E7 Am7 F7
It was such a romantic affair
Cmaj7 Am7 F Bb7
And when you turned and smiled at me
Cmaj7 Am7 Dm7 G7 Cmaj7 G#
A nightingale sang in Berkeley Square
[Verse 4]
C#maj7 F#maj7
How strange it was
G#m7 C#7
How sweet and strange
F#maj7 F7 Bbm7 F#m7
There was never a dream to compare
C#maj7 F#maj7 F7
What that hazy, crazy night we met
Bbm7 Ebm7 G#7
When a nightingale sang in Berkeley Square
[Verse 5]
C#maj7 F#maj7 G#m7 C#7
Ah, this heart of mine beat loud and fast
F#maj7 F7 Bbm7 F#m
Like a merry-go-round in a fair
C#maj7 F#maj7 F7
And we were dancing cheek to cheek
Bbm7 Ebm7 C#7
When a nightingale sang in Berkeley Square
[Bridge 2]
Fmaj7 D7 Gm7 C7 Fmaj7
When dawn came stealing up all gold and blue
D7 Gm7 C7
To interrupt our rendezvous
Fmaj7 D7 Gm7 C7
I still remember when you smiled and said
Fmaj7 Eb7 G#7
"Was that a dream or was it true?"
[Outro]
C#maj7 F#maj7 G#m7 C#7
Our homeward steps were just as light
F#maj7 F7 Bbm F#m
As the dancing feet of Astaire
Bb7
And like an echo far away
Fm7 Bbm7 Ebm7 G#7
A nightingale sang in Berkeley
C#maj7 F#maj7 F7
That night in Berkeley
Ebm7 Amaj7 G#7 C#maj7 F#7 B7
That night in Berke-ley Square
C#m7 C#7 C#maj7
That certain night
The night we met
There was magic abroad in the air
There were angels dining at the Ritz
And a nightingale sang in Berkeley Square
I may be right, I may be wrong
But I'm perfectly willing to swear
That when you turned and smiled at me
A nightingale sang in Berkeley Square
The moon that lingered over London town
Poor puzzled moon, wore such a frown
How could he know we two were so in love?
The whole darn world seemed upside down
The streets of town were paved with stars
It was such a romantic affair
And when you turned and smiled at me
A nightingale sang in Berkeley Square
How strange it was
How sweet and strange
There was never a dream to compare
What that hazy, crazy night we met
When a nightingale sang in Berkeley Square
Ah, this heart of mine beat loud and fast
Like a merry-go-round in a fair
And we were dancing cheek to cheek
When a nightingale sang in Berkeley Square
When dawn came stealing up all gold and blue
To interrupt our rendezvous
I still remember when you smiled and said
"Was that a dream or was it true?"
Our homeward steps were just as light
As the dancing feet of Astaire
And like an echo far away
A nightingale sang in Berkeley
That night in Berkeley
That night in Berkeley Square
