  Rate this tab:
This is in the key I sing it in, but it can obviously be transposed into whatever
you need. Please enjoy!!! 

I use a lot of jazz symbols so for those of you that don't know:
a (—) means minor. As in A#—7 = A#min7



A#—7 D#7        G#m
I——————— didn't know what time it was

A#—7   D#7        C#
Then—————— I met you.

C#m        G#m            D#m  E
Oh, what a lovely time it was,

               D#m C#m  (F#—7 F#7)
How sublime it was too!


A#—7 D#7       G#m
I—————— didn't know what day it was

A#  D#7          C#
You———— hold my hand.

C#m            G#m            D#m  E
Warm like the month of May it was,

         D#m         C#—7  (F#—7 F#7)
and I'll say it was grand.


B             C#—7        D#7  
Grand to be alive, to be young,

      C#m         D#7    G#m
to be mad, to be yours alone!

E  F#7               B
Grand—— to see your face, feel your touch,

                        C#7      C#m7  (F#—7 F#7)
hear your voice say I'm all your own.



A#—7 D#7        G#m
I——————— didn't know what year it was

A#—7 D#7          C#
life———— was no prize.

C#m            G#m              D#m  E
I—————— wanted love and here it was

                    C#—7  
shining out of your eyes.


C#—7—5  B
I'm    wise————,
                                        Endings
       E6        F#     E6  B      1. E#—7—5  F#7
and I know what time it is now.    2. B  B6
