A7          Gm7  A4/7  A7  D7M   D6 
There was a moon  out  in space 
      A7/13        E7/9  A7/13  D 
But a cloud drifted over its face 
    Em7           Gm7 Gdim      D   Bm7 
You kissed me and went on your way 
     A7      Gdim         D 
The night we called it a day 
A7          Gm7  A4/7  A7  D7M   D6 
I heard the song   of the spheres  
      A7/13    E7/9   A7/13 D 
Like a minor lament in my ears 
  Em7         Gm7  Gdim     D Bm7 
I hadn't the heart left to pray  
    A7       Gdim         D 
The night we called it a day 

Bridge 
G      A7         D        Gm7       Gdim A7      D 
Soft through the dark, the hoot of an owl in the sky 
Gdim F#7       Bm   Bm7    E        Gm7      A7 
Sad though his song,    no bluer was he than I 
A7            Gm7  A4/7  A7  D7M   D6 
The moon went down, stars were gone 
       A7/13        E7/9 A7/13     D 
But the sun didn't rise with the dawn 
      Em7       Gm7         Gdim 
There wasn't a thing left to say 
    A7/9- A   A7   Gm7 A7  D6 
The night we called it a  day
