That [C7] certain [Am] night, the [Em] night we [C7]met There was [F] magic a[E7]broad in the [Am] air [Fm6] There were [C7] angels [G7]dining [C7]at the [Fm6]Ritz And a [C7]nightingale [Am] sang in [Dm7]Berke[G7]ley [C7] Square
[short bridge, try C7, Am, G7]
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
[short bridge, try C7, Am, B7]
[chorus:] [E] The moon that [C#m7] lingered over [F#m] London [B7] town [G#m7] Poor puzzled moon, [F#m7] he wore a [B7] frown [E] How could he [C#m7] know we two were [F#m] so in [B7] love [G#m7] The whole darned world seemed [Dm] upside [G7] down
The streets of town were paved with stars It was such a romantic affair And as we kissed and said goodnight A nightingale sang in Berkeley Square
[Repeat chorus with vocal or instrumental break]
My homeward steps were just as light As the tap dancing feet of Astaire And like an echo, far away A [C7]nightingale [Am] sang in [Dm7]Berke[G7]ley [C7] Square I [Dm7] know 'cause [G7] I was[Em7] there [Dm7] That night in [G7] Berkeley [C] Square [hit chord on each word] [C7] I [C7] was [C7] there [C7]
