A Nightingale Sang In Berkeley Square Cifras

[Prelude]
A                Bm               C#m            F#m
When true lovers meet in Mayfair, so the legends tell,
D   E     C#m  F#m Bm     E7       A      E
Songbirds sing,    winter turns to spring
A             Bm                C#m      C#       F#m
Every winding street in Mayfair falls beneath the spell,
  B                         Cm            B                       E7    E
I know such enchantment can be, ‘cause it happened one evening to me
 
[Verse 1]
     A       F#m        C#m      A7             D      C#7          F#m   Dm7
That certain night, the night we met, there was magic abroad in the air
           A      D      A7     Dm7         A           F#m     Bm   E7  A      F#m  B E7
There were angels dining at the Ritz, and a nightingale sang in Berkeley Square
 
 
[Verse 2]
  A      F#m      C#m    A7             D         C#7        F#m    Dm7
I may be right, I may be wrong, but I’m perfectly willing to swear,
     A        D          A7        Dm7   A           F#m     Bm   E7  A
That when you turned and smiled at me, a nightingale sang in Berkeley Square
 
[Bridge 1]
D               Bm            F#m    Bm         Em7     Bm       G      A
  The moon that lingered over London town, poor puzzled moon, he wore a frown,
D              Bm               F#7   Bm7
  How could he know we two were so in love
    E                       Bm7    E7
The whole darn world seemed upside down
 
 
[Verse 3]
    A          F#m       C#m        A7            D        C#7      F#m   Dm7
The streets of town were paved with stars, it was such a romantic affair,
    A     D          A7       Dm7      A           F#m     Bm   E7   A     A7
And as we kissed and said goodnight, a nightingale sang in Berkeley  Square.
 
[Bridge 2]
D              Bm              F#m      Bm       Em7  Bm       G          A
When dawn came stealing up all gold and blue, to interrupt our rendezvous,
D          Bm            F#7        Bm7       Em               Bm7    E7
I still remember how you smiled and said "Was that a dream, or was it true?"
 
 
[Verse 4]
    A        F#m      C#m     A7            D           C#7       F#m   Dm7
Our homeward step was just as light, as the tap-dancing feet of Astaire,
    A       D     A7  Dm7     A           F#m     Bm   E7  A     F#m  B E7
And like an echo, far away, a nightingale sang in Berkeley Square.
 
[Ending]
D             E     C#m    F#m  Bm    C#m   D  Bm   E   Dm    A
I  know cause I was there;       that night in Berkeley Square
