G       Em         Bm      G7 
That certain night, the night we met, 
           C      B7           Em     B  
There was magic abroad in the air; 
           G       D7    G7      Cm 
There were angels dining at the Ritz 
       G           Em     Am7  D7    G          Em    Am7    D7 
And a nightingale sang in Berkeley Square. 
 
I may be right, I may be wrong,  

But I'm perfectly willing to swear 

That when you turned and smiled at me 
   G            Em    Am7   D7   G     Em   Em6   F#7 
A nightingale sang in Berkeley Square. 
 
Bridge 1: 
      B7                     C#m7(b5)  F#7 
The moon that lingered over London town -- 
       Bm      G?     C#m7(b5)  F#7  
Poor, puzzled moon, he wore a frown. 
  B7                          C#m7(b5) F#7 
How could he know we two were  so in love  
      Bm       G?         Am7     D 
The whole darn world seemed upside down. 
 
The streets of town were paved with stars, 

It was such a romantic affair. 

And as we kissed and said "Good-bye,"  

A nightingale sang in Berkeley Square. 
 
How strange it was, how sweet and strange;  

There was never a dream to compare 

With that hazy, crazy night we met  

When a nightingale sang in Berkeley Square. 

This heart of mine beat loud and fast,  

Like a merry go round at the fair; 

For we were dancing cheek to cheek  

And a nightingale sang in Berkeley Squre. 

Bridge 2:  
 
When dawn came stealing up all gold and blue 

To interrupt our rendezvous, 

I still remember how you smiled and said, 

"Was that a dream or was it true?" 
 
Our homeward step was just as light  

As the tap-dancing feet of Astaire, 

And like an echo, far away,  
   G           Em      Am7 D7    G       Em 
A nightingale sang in Berkeley Square.

I know 'cause I was there 
C       C/B     Cm   D7    G     Em    Cm    Cm7(b5)    G 
  That night in Berkeley Square.
