A Nightingale Sang In Berkeley Square

   C       Am         Em         
That certain night, the night we 
C
met,
         F       E7          Am
There was magic abroad in the air.
            C      Am    Em  
There were angels dining at the 
    Dm
Ritz,
       C          Am      Dm   
And a nightingale sang in 
G7   C       Am   Dm  G7
Berkeley Square.


[Verse 2]
C        Am       Em      C
I may be right, I may be wrong,
        F          E7         Am
But I'm perfectly willing to swear,
     C         Am         Em      
That when you turned and smiled at
 Dm
 me,
  C           Am     Dm   G7   
A nightingale sang in Berkeley  
C
Square.


[Chorus 1]
    F                        B7
The moon that lingered over London 
town,
Continues after the ad

                       E
Poor puzzled moon, he wore a frown,
    E7                       B7
How could he know we two were so in 
 love,
     A                      Dm    
The whole darn world seemed upside
    G7
 down.


[Verse 3]
     C         Am          Em    
The streets of town were paved 
      C
with stars,
        F       Em       Am
It was such a romantic affair,
    C      Am          Em      Dm
And as we kissed and said goodnight,
  C         Am      Dm   G7    
A nightingale sang in Berkeley  
C
Square.


[Chorus 2]
    F                          B7
When dawn came steaming up all gold 
and blue,
                    E
To interupt our rendezvous
    E7                     B7
I still remember how you smiled and 
said,
A                    Dm        G7
Was that a dream or was it true?


[Verse 4]
     C       Am         Em      C
Our homeward step was just as light,
        F          Em      Am
As the tap dancing feet of Astaire,
     C      Am    Em     Dm
And like an echo, far away,
