[Verse 1]
[G]When [Em]they[G][D][Em][G]
be[D]gin the [Em]begin,
[D]it [G]brings back the sound
of music [C]so [Dsus4]tender.
[D]It brings back a night of [Am]tropical splendor,
it brings [D]back a memory evergreen.
[G]I'm[Bb] with[G] you once more
un[Em]der [Bm]the s[Em]tars,[G]
and down by the [D]shore [G]an
[Em]orchestra's [Am]playing.
[D]Oh, even the [Am]palms
seem to be swaying
[D]When they [Bm]be g[D]in the
be[G]guine[Gm][G]
To live [Gm]it again i[C]s past all e[F]ndeavor
Except when that [Fm]tune [Bb]clutches my heart
[Eb]An d[Edim] there we are,
[C#dim]swearing to love [D]forever
[Gm]An d[Eb] promising neve[D]r, oh,
[C]nev[Cm]er de[Eb]part[D][Eb][E][D]
[G]What moments divine,
what [D]rapture se[G]rene
[Em]Till[G] clouds came along[D]
to [G]disperse the [Dm]joys we [Am]had tasted
[D]An d [E]now [Ab]when I hear[Eb] peopl[Cm]e curse
the chance [Adim]that was wa[Am]sted,
[Cm]I kn[C]ow b[Am]ut too well[D]
what they [G]mean.[Bb][Gm]
[G]So don't let them begin [C]the be[D]gin.[G]
Let the love that was once a
fire [D]remain an ember.
Oh, let it [C]sleep like a dead de[Am]sire,
I [Bm]only [E]remember[Am]
When they [D]begin the [G]begin
[Em]Oh y[G]es, let them begin the begin
[C]Make [G]the[Bm]m pla[G]y
[C]Til[G]l the stars that were there bef[C]ore
Return [G]above [D]you
Till you whis[C]per to me once [Am]more
Darling, [G]I l[D]ove y[Bm]ou[E]
And [Em]we s[D]uddenly know
What heaven [Am]we're [D]in,
when they begin the be[G]guine.[Gm]
[G]When [Am]they begin
[D]the beguine.
