Night And Day Chords & Tabs

by Cole Porter

Great jazz standard. Was asked for the chords so here they are.
For the downward progression in the line "Whether near to me or far, etc." I'd
recommend starting with the Gbm7b5 up around the 9th fret. As opposed to way down
on the 2nd and then switching when you go to the Ebdim7. But that probably goes without saying.
Leading into the Dm7b5 with a Dbm7b5 works quite nicely. Or a Dbdim7. Also cool.
Oh, and I think I play a G13 more often than I play a straight G7. Just sounds a little better.

          Dm7    G7           Cmaj7
Night and day     you are the one
     Dm7             G7                Cmaj7
Only you beneath the moon or under the sun
        Gbm7          Fm7      Em7               Ebdim7       
Whether near to me or far it's no matter darling where you are
  Dm7           G7       Cmaj7
I think of you   day and night
          Dm7    G7         Cmaj7
Night and day     why is it so
          Dm7             G7                 Cmaj7
That this longing for you follows wherever I go
       Gbm7              Fm7         Em7           Ebdim7     
In the roaring traffic's boom in the silence of my lonely room
  Dm7           G7       Cmaj7
I think of you   day and night
          Ebmaj7        Cmaj7     
Night and day under the hide of me
           Ebmaj7                              Cmaj7     
There's an oh such a hungry yearning burning inside of me
         Gbm7             Fm7    
And this torment won't be through
          Em7             Ebdim7              Dm7
Until you let me spend my life making love to you
G7      Cmaj7
Day and night
