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.

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.
