Version 1
            Classic song! They play the original in Ab but I think it suits guitar best in A. I use my thumb on any
fretted notes on the low E string. -Sean B.

[A part I]
       Dmaj7        E7
What a day this has been!
       C#m7          F#7#5 F#7
What a rare mood I'm in!
        Bm7          E7       A
Why it's almost like being in love
[A part II]
          Dmaj7       E7
There's a smile on my face
        C#m7        F#7#5  F#7
For the whole human race
        Bm7          E7       A
Why it's almost like being in love
[B part]
        G#m7     C#7           F#maj7
All the music of life seems to be
       F#m7         G#m7b5      C#7
Like a bell that is ringing for me
[A part finale]
             Dmaj7      E7
And from the way that I feel
         C#m7           F#7#5  F#7
When the bell starts to peal
        Bm7         E7
I would swear I was falling
        C#m7        F#7#5  F#7
I could swear I was falling
     Bm7         E7       A    E7   Amaj7
It's almost like being in love
