I like most of these chords. There may be a few that could be improved,
suggestions welcome.
Note, I don't use a pick. Most of these old jazz songs I pluck,
thumb and fingers on the downbeat, fingers only on the upbeat.
Ab13: 4x456x

Intro
[BM7] [C#m7]
Verse 1
[BM7] [C#m7]
Day in, day out
[BM7] [C#m7] [Dm7] [Ebm7] [Ab13] [Ab7+5]
The same old voodoo follows me about
[F#]
The same old pounding in my heart
[F#7]
Whenever I think of you
[Fm7] [A#7]
and darling, I think of you
[BM7] [Abm7] [C#m7] [F#13]
Day in and day out
Verse 2
[BM7] [C#m7]
Day out, day in
[BM7] [C#m7] [Dm7] [Ebm7] [Ab13] [Ab7+5]
I needn't tell you how my days begin
[F#] [C#7#9]
When I awake I awaken with a tingle
[F#] [C#7#9]
One possibility in view
[F#] [A#m7] [Am7] [Abm7] [F#13] [F#7+5] [F#7]
That possibility of maybe seeing you
Verse 3
[BM7] [C#m7]
Come rain, come shine
[BM7] [C#m7] [Dm7] [Ebm7] [Ab13] [Ab7+5]
I meet you and to me the day is fine
[EM7] [Em7] [BM7] [C#m7] [BM7]
Then I kiss your lips and the pounding becomes
[Ab7+5] [C#m7] [F#13] [BM7] [Abm7] [BM7]
The oceans roar, a thousand drums
[Ab7+5] [EM7] [Em7] [BM7]
Can't you see it's love? Can there be any doubt
[Ab7+5] [C#m7] [F#13] [BM7]
When there it is, day in, day out?
(solos over verses 1 and 2, repeat verse 3 with vocals, substitute the coda for the last line)
Coda
[Ab7+5] [C#m7] [F#13]
When there it is,
[C#m7] [F#13]
and here it is,
[C#m7] [F#13]
and there it is,
[BM7]
day in, day out?
