[Intro 1]
[G][C][G][C][D]
[G]When they begin,

[Verse 1]
[G]
begin the beguine
It brings back the [Em]sound
[G]of music so ten[Am]der[D]
It brings back a night [Am]of tropical
[C]splendor[Am]
[Dm]It bring[D]s back a memory ever [G]green[C]
[D]I'm wit[G]h you once more,

[Verse 2]
[G]
I'm with you under the stars, under [Em]the stars
[G]And down by the[Em] shore[G]
[Em]an orchest[G]ra's p[Am]laying
[D]And even the palms seem to [C]be swaying,
oh sway[Am]ing[C][G]
When they [D]begin,
[G]when [D]they begin the [G]be [Em]guine[A][G]
[Gm]To

[Verse 3]
live [C]it again is past all en[F]deavor,
[Dm]past all endeavor
[Fm]Except when that tun e[Bb] clutc[Eb]hes my heart[Cm],
[Eb]clutches [Cm]my heart
And [C]there [Edim]we are,[C#dim]
swearing to [A]love [D]forever
[Cm]And promisin[Eb]g neve[D]r,
[G]never [D]to part[Eb][D]

[Verse 4]
What [G]moments di[Em]vine,
what rapture serene
[D]Til clouds [G]came along to disperse
the joys we had [Am]tasted
[D]And now when I h[Cm]ear people
curse the chance that we wasted
I [D]know but too well, I know too well, what [Am]they [G]mean,
too [Bm]well what [B]they mean

[Verse 5]
So [E]let them begin,
[C#m]be gin[E] th[C#m]e begu[E]ine[C#m]
Let the love [E]that was once
[C#m]a fire remain an [B]ember
Let it sleep [A]like the dead de[B]sire
I only re[E]member[C#]
[B]When they [D]be [B]gin the [E]be guine

[Verse 6]
Oh [E]yes, let them begin the beguine,
make them [C#m]play[E][C#m]
[E]Till the stars that were there
be[F#m]fore ret[B]urn above you
Till you [Am]whisper [A]to [B]me once more: "Darling,
[E]I love [G#dim]you!"[C#]
And we sud[B]denly know what
heaven we're in
When they begin, begin the be[E]guine[C]

Begin [G]the be[G]guine[Gm]
