I Didnt Know What Time It Was

Ella Fitzgerald

Text File

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
