Verse 1:
Cm                              Fm6
Once upon a summertime if you recall
              G7                   Cm7
We stopped beside a little flower stall
           Cm6                       D7
A bunch of bright forget-me-nots was all
            G7/9-  G7
You'd let me buy  you




Verse 2:
Gm7/C       C7         C7/9- F7M
Once upon a summertime like today
               Bb9             C7M
We laughed the happy afternoon away
            Am7                    D7
And stole a kiss in ev'ry street cafe

Interlude:

G7 G7/9-



Verse 3:
C7M             Am7                       Dm7
You were sweeter than the blossoms on the tree
          G7                    C
I was as proud as any man 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                        C7M
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.
Gm7/C        C9              C7       F
Now, another wintertime has come and gone

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
