G7   C  Am  Dm7 
To you  
 
   G7                  C       Am Dm7 
My heart cries out "Perfidia," 
 
    G7               C           Am 
For I found you, the love of my life, 
 
   Dm7      G7      E7 
In somebody else's arms. 
 
 
G7    C  Am  Dm7 
Your eyes  
 
    G7           C       Am Dm7 
Are echoing "Perfidia," 
 
    G7            C          Am 
Forgetful of our promise of love, 
 
        Dm7      G7         E7 
You're sharing another's charms. 
 
 
Bridge: 
 
 
Dm            Dm7 
With a sad lament, my dreams  
 
     F            Dm7        E7 
Have faded like a broken melody; 
 
           Dm                F 
While the gods of love look down and laugh 
 
    D             Dm7     Bb9     E7 
At what romantic fools we mortals be. 
 
 
G7   C  Am  Dm7 
And now  
 
   G7               C       Am Dm7 
I know my love was not for you 
 
    G7               C           Am 
And so I'll take it back with a sigh, 
 
   Dm7     G7         C   Fdim   C 
Perfidious one, good-bye.
