That certain night, the night we met 
           C7M          B7                Em7 D7 
There was magic abroad in the air 
                   G7M    D7     G7      Cm6 
There were angels dining at the Ritz 
        G7M        Em7         Am7  D7    G7M  Em Am7 D7 
And a nightingale sang in Berkeley Square 
   G7M    Em7    Bm7     G7 
I may be right, I may be wrong 
       C7M      B7                     Em7   D7 
But I'm    perfectly willing to swear 
         G7M        D7             G7          Cm6 
That when you turned and smiled at me

Bridge 
B7M/9	         G#m7            C#m7    F#7 
The moon that lingered over London town  
          B7M/9    G#m7    C#m7  F#7  
Poor, puzzled moon, he wore a frown 
B7M/9	        G#m7             C#m7      F#7 
How could he know we two were so in love  
       Bm7    E7              Am7               D7 
The whole darn world seemed upside down 
        G7M       Em7         Bm7            G7 
The streets of town were paved with stars 
           C7M   B7           Em7  D7 
It was such a romantic affair 
        G7M            D7     G7          Cm6 
And as we kissed and said 'Goodnight'  
    G7M          Em7     Am7    D7   G7M Em Am7 D7

I know 'cause I was there

That  night in Berkeley Square
