Intro: D Bm F#m D7 G F#7 Bm Gm D D7 --- Gm

D Bm F#m D7
That certain night, the night we met,
G F#7 Bm Gm
There was magic abroad in the air.
D D7 Gm Gm7
There were angels dining at the Ritz,
D Bm Em A7 D Em A7
And a nightingale sang in Berke---ley Square.

D Bm F#m D7
I may be right, I may be wrong,
G F#7 Bm Gm
But I'm perfectly willing to swear
D D7 Gm Gm7
That when you turned and smiled at me,
D Bm Em A7 D Bm C#7
A. nightingale sang in Berke---ley Square.

F# D#m G#m7 C#7


The moon that lingered over London town
A#m7 G#m7 C#7
Poor puzzled moon, he wore a frown.
F# D#m G#m7 C#7
How could we know we two were so in love?
A#m7 Em A7
The whole darn world seemed upside down.

D Bm F#m D7
The streets of town were paved with stars,
G F#7 Bm Gm
It was such a romantic affair.
D D7 Gm Gm7
And as we kissed and said goodnight,
D Bm Em A7 D Cm D7
A. nightingale sang in Berke---ley Square.

D# Cm Gm D#7
How strange it was, how sweet and strange
G# G7 Cm G#m
There was never a dream to compare
D# D#7 G#m G#m7
To those hazy, crazy, night we met
D# Cm Fm A#7 D#
When a nightingale sang in Berkeley Square

D# Cm Gm D#7
This heart of mine beat loud and fast
G# G7 Cm G#m
Like a merry-go-round in a fair
D# D#7 G#m G#m7
For we were dancing cheek to cheek
D# Cm Fm A#7 D#
And a nightingale sang in Ber----keley Square
G Em Am7 D7
When dawn came stealing up, all gold and blue
Bm7 Am7 D7
To interrupt our rendezvous,
G Em Am7 D7
I still remember how you smiled and said,
Bm7 Fm A#7
"Was that a dream? Or was it true?"

D# Cm Gm D#7
Our homeward step was just as light
G# G7 Cm G#m
As the dancing feet of Astaire,
D# D#7 G#m
And like an echo far away
D# Cm Fm A#7
A. nightingale sang in Berke---ley
D# D#7 A#7
A. nightingale sang in Ber---keley
G# C#m C#m7 D#7
That night in Ber---keley Squa-----re
