[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
