Chords for Jo Stafford - Begin the Beguine

_ _ _ _ _ _ [Dbm] _ _
_ [D] _ _ _ _ [Ab] _ _ [A] _
_ _ [Ab] _ _ _ _ _
When they _ [Fm] begin the [Eb] begin, _ [Ab] _ _ _ it brings back the _ sound of music [Bbm] so tender.
_ _ _ [Db] It brings back an _ article's _ _ _
[Bb] splendor.
_ _ [Db] _ It brings [Fm] back a memory _ _ [Ab] _ evergreen.
_ _ _ [Ab] _ I'm [Eb] with you once [Fm] more _ under the [Eb] _ _
_ [Fm] stars, [Eb] and down by the [Ab] shore an [Bbm] orchestra's playing. _
[Db] _ _ [Cm] _ [Bbm] And even the _ palms _ seem to be _ swaying _ _ when they [Eb] begin _ the [Ab] begin.
_ _ [Bbm] _ _
[Ab] To _ live it [Db] again is past all [Gb] endeavor, _ _ _
[Gb] _ except [A] when that [B] tune _ clutches [Abm] my heart.
_ _ [E] _
_ [Fm] And there we are swearing to love [Ab] _ _ [Bb] forever, _ [E] _ _
_ [Eb] promising _ never, [E] _
never to [Eb] part. _ _ _ _
What [Ab] moments _ divine, what rapture _ serene, _ _ [Ab] till clouds came along to [F] disperse the [Bbm] joys we had tasted. _ _
[Dbm] And now when I hear people curse the [Bb] chance that was _ [Bb] wasted, _ _ I [Eb] know but too well _ _ [Cm] what they [Eb] _ mean.
[Ab] _ _ So don't let them begin, _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [Eb] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ let [Bbm] it sleep like the dead desire _ [Cm] _
in my womb.
_ _ _ _ [Db] When they [Eb] _ _ begin [Cm] the begin, _
[Eb] _ _ [Ab] _ _ [Eb] oh yes let them begin the [Eb] begin.
_ Make them [Ab] play _ _ _ [Abm] till the stars that were [Ab] there before _ _ [Eb] return above you.
_ _ [Db] Till you whisper to me once more [Cm] darling I love [Eb] you, _ and [Db] we suddenly _ know [Eb] _ [Bb] what heaven we're [Bbm] in.
_ _ [Ab] When they begin [Eb] _ _ the begin. _
_ _ _ _ _ [Bb] When they begin, let them begin the begin.
Let them [Eb] play, let them play, let them play the begin. _
_ _ [Abm] _ _ _ _ [Eb] _ _
