[short bridge, try
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
{section: Chorus}
]
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

          [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
