Bruges

Intro: G  C  Am  D7  G 
 
verse 1  
                       C         Am 
Winter was colder than ever last year  
D7                          G          Bm 
Spring came so slowly, then summer was near  
   Em                    Am 
We hung up our overcoats when skies were clear  
    D7                       G 
And read all our books about Bruges  
 
verse 2 
                               C          Am 
And when we arrived there, the sun was so high  
    D7                     G          Bm 
The blue was the blue of a hot summer sky  
        Em                          Am 
And the books that we'd read hadn't told us a lie  
    D7                   G 
And we fell in love with Bruges

                          C            Am 
Bruges in the summertime, stars in the night  
D7                       G  
Wine in the warm glow of soft candlelight  
B7                       Em 
Bruges in the summertime feeling so right  
A7                        D7 
Whispering sweet and low “Lady, I love you” 
    C         Am            D 
So, we will return when the memories fade  
       C           Am             D 
To the room in the town where the memories were made  
 
verse 3 
 
       G                    C            Am 
They's bells in the towers, bands in the squares  
D7                  G            Bm 
Boats on canals, balloons at the fairs  
         Em                    Am 
Where we laughed away worries, kissed away cares  
    D7                   G 
And sang out our song of Bruges  

G    C  Am  D7    G  Bm  Em    Am    D7    G

Bruges in the summertime, stars in the night  
D7                       G

Bruges in the summertime feeling so right  
A7                        D7 
Whispering sweet and low “Lady, I love you” 
    C         Am            D

verse 4 
 
G                         C               Am 
Cobbled street carriages, horsedrawn for two  
D7                   G           Bm 
Picnics and palaces, pictures to view  
    Em                            Am 
But nothing I see is as lovely as you  
    D7                    G 
No, not all the beauty of Bruges  


G    C  Am  D7    G  Bm  Em    Am    D7    G 

VERSE 5 

                                C          Am 
There's laughter and loving and living for now  
     D7                              G      Bm 
With dreams that come true if you'll only allow  
   Em                      Am 
So I’ll make a promise, if you make a vow  
   D7               G 
To love me again in Bruges 

ENJOY.......
