Verse 1:
Am           Am              Am            Am
Istanbul was Constantinople, now it's Istanbul, not Constantinople
        E7                 E7
Been a long timee, old Constantinople
         Am   -    Dm         Dm      Am
Now it's Turkish delight on a moonlit night
Am           Am             Am            Am
Every gal in Constantinople lives in Istanbul, not Constantinople
      E7               E7               Am    -    E7    Am

Why they changed it I can't say, people just liked it better that way
   Am              Am            Am               Am

        E7              E7             Am            Am
