Biography:
Irving Berlin (11 May 1888 – 22 September 1989), born Israel Isidore Baline, in Tyumen, Russia (according to other sources possibly Mogilev, now Belarus), was an American composer and lyricist. He was one of the most prodigious and famous American songwriters in history.
Berlin, who was Jewish, was one of the few Tin Pan Alley/Broadway songwriters who wrote both lyrics and music for his songs. Although he never learned to read music beyond a rudimentary level, he composed over 3,000 songs.

"I'm Beginning To See The Light" by Irving Berlin
Chords by Joan's Genius 2015
NOTE: My version of this song starts out in the key of D, then changes to Db half-way through.
Bm D
I never cared much for moonlit skies
Bm D
I never wink back at fireflies
Bm D
But now that the stars are in your eyes
G A D
I'm beginning to see the light
Bm D
I never went in for afterglow
Bm D
Or candlelight on the mistletoe
Bm D
But now when you turn the lamp down low
G A D
I'm beginning to see the light
F
Used to ramble through the park
Eb
Shadowboxing in the dark
Db
Then you can and caused a spark
A Ab
That's a four-alarm fire now
Bbm Db
I never made love by lantern shine
Bbm Db
I never saw rainbow in my wine
Bbm Db
But now that your lips are burning mine
Gb Ab Db
I'm beginning to see the light
