Intro

Verse

[A] [A6] [A7M] [A6] [A] [A6] [A7M] [A6]

When they begin the beguine,

[A] [A6] [A7M] [A6] [E7]

It brings back the sound of music so tender,

[Bm] [Bm7] [Bm] [Bm7]

It brings back a night of tropical splendor,

Bm5-/7 [E7] [E7sus4] [E7] [A9] [A]

It brings back a memory ever green.

[A] [A6] [A7M] [A6] [A] [A6] [A7M] [A6]

I'm with you once more under the stars,

[A] [A7M] [F#m7] [E7]

And down by the shore, an orchestra's playing;

[E7] Bm5-/7 [E7] [D] [E7] [E7sus4] [E7] [A] [A6] [A7M] [A6]

And even the palms seem to be swaying. When they begin the beguine.

Bridge

[Am] [D7] [G] [Gm] [C7] [F7M] [F]

To live it again is past all endeavor. Except when that tune clutches my heart,

[Cdim] [Dm] [E] [F] [E] [Dm7] [E] [E7]

And there we are, swearing to love forever, and promising never, never to part.

[A] [A6] [A7M] [A6] [A] [A6] [A7M] [A6]

What moments divine, what rapture serene,

[A] [A7] [E7]

Til clouds came along to disperse the joy we had tasted;

Dm Bm5-/7

And now when I hear people curse the chance that was wasted,

[E7] Bm5-/7 [E7] [A9] [A] [E7] [A6] [A7M] [A6]

I know but too well what they mean. So don't let them begin the beguine,

[E7] [A] [A6] [E7]

Let the love that was once a fire remain an ember;

[D] [Bm7] C#m5-/7 [F#m]

Let it sleep like the dead desire I only remember

Bm5-/7 [E7] Bm5-/7 [E7] [A] [A6]

When they begin the beguine.

[E7] [A] [A6] [A] [A7M] [A6]

Oh, yes, let them begin the beguine, make them play,

[E7] [A] [A6] [A7M] [E7]

Til the stars that were there before return above you,

[D] [Bm7] C#m5-/7 [F#7]

Til you whisper to me once more, "Darling, I love you."

Bm7 Bm5-/7

And we suddenly know . . .what heaven we're in

[E7] [A] [Am7] [Bm7] [Dm6] [E7] [A] [A6] [A7M] [A6] [A]

When they begin the beguine. When they begin the beguine.
