Verse 1

[Cm] [Fm6]

Once upon a summertime, if you recall

[G7] [Cm7]

We stopped be-side a little flower stall

[Cm6] [D7]

A bunch of bright forget-me-nots was all

[G7-9] [G7]

I'd let you buy me

Verse 2

[Gm7/C] [C7] [C7b9] [Fmaj7]

Once upon a summertime just like today

[Bb9] [Cmaj7]

We laughed the happy afternoon away

[Am7] [D7] [G7] [G7-9]

And stole a kiss in ev'ry street cafe

Verse 3

[Cmaj7] [Am7] [Dm7]

You were sweeter than the blossoms on the tree

[G7] [C]

I was as proud as any girl could be

[Am7] [Dm7] [G7]

As if the mayor had offered me the key to Paris

Verse 4

[Gm7/C] [C9] [C7] [F]

Now, another wintertime has come and gone

[Bb9] [Cmaj7]

The pigeons feeding in the square have flown

[Am7] [D7]

But I remember when the vespers chime

[Dm7] [G9] [G7-9] [C]

You loved me once upon a summertime

Verse 5

[Gm7/C] [C9] [C7] [F]

Now, another wintertime has come and gone

[Bb9] [Cmaj7]

The pigeons feeding in the square have flown

[Am7] [D7]

But I remember when the vespers chime

[Dm7] [G9] [G7-9] [C]

You loved me once upon a summertime
