I Didn’t Know What Time It Was

I DIDN’T KNOW WHAT TIME IT WAS
By Rogers & Hart
Ella Fitzgerald
Key: G

-4-2* 3 -3 -3 -3 -4 3
I did-n’t know what time it was
-4 -2* 3 -3
Then I met you.
-3 2 -2* 3 3 3 -3 -2*
Oh, what a love-ly time it was,
2 2 2 -2* -1 4
How sub-lime it was too!

-4-2* 3 -3 -3 -3 -4 3
I did-n’t know what day it was
-4 -2* 3 -3
You held my hand.
-3 2 -2* 3 3 3 -3 -2*
Warm like the month of May it was,
2 2 2 -2* -1 -5
And I’ll say it was grand.

6 -5 5 -4 -3 3 -2* 3
Grand to be a-live, to be young,
3 -2* -3 -3-2* 3 3* 3
To be mad, to be yours a-lone!
6 -5 5 -4 -3 -3 -2* -3
Grand to see your face, feel your touch,
-3 -2* -3 -3 -2* -3 3 -5
Hear your voice say I’m all your own.

-4-2* 3 -3 -3 -3 -4 3
I did-n’t know what year it was
-4 -2* 3 -3
Life was no prize.
-3 2 -2* 3 3 3 -3 -2*
I want-ed love and here it was
2 2 2 -2* -1 -5
Shin-ing out of your eyes.
5 -4
I’m wise,
-2* 3 -3 -3 -3 -4 3 3
And I know what time it is now.
