Note: This is all my own work and only an approximation of the song as interpreted by Tony. It is not in Tony's key -- and I'm no Ralph Sharon!
That C7 certain Am night, the Em night we C7met There was F magic aE7broad in the Am air Fm6 There were C7 angels G7dining C7at the Fm6Ritz And a C7nightingale Am sang in Dm7BerkeG7ley 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 wasEm7 there Dm7 That night in G7 Berkeley C Square [hit chord on each word] [C7] I [C7] was [C7] there [C7]
