  D      D6/9     Bm7    Em7       A7     Em7    A7     D     D6/9 
I feel a sudden urge to sing the kind of ditty that invokes the Spring 
     D6/9         Edim     Em  A7     Em7 G/B    Edim Gdim  D 
So, control your desire to curse  while I  crucify     the  verse 
   D        Cdim    Bm7   Em7 Gdim      A7 Em7 Cdim  A7     D    D6/9 
This verse I've started seems to   me the 'Tin Pan-tithesis' of melody 
    D         G  B7   E7           Em7         A7      Edim Gdim        D 
So to spare you all the pain, I'll skip the darn thing and sing  the refrain 
 D              D7/13-                     D6           D       D6 
The night is young, the skies are clear and if you want to go walkin', Dear 
     D             Cdim              Em7   A7 
It's delightful, it's delicious, it's de-lovely 
  Em    B7/13-      A7         G/B           A7 
I understand the reason why you're sentimental, 'cause so am I  
      G/E    Em7  G/E Em7  Gdim   A7  Gdim  D D6   
It's de lightful, it's delicious, it's de-lovely

D   G/B D7  Am7    D7    Am7    G     D7/9      G/B    Am7 G 
You can tell at a glance what a swell night this is for romance 
G/F#     B7      Edim     B7    Cdim      Em7  G/B A7    A7/13-                      
You can hear Dear Mother Nature murmuring low,   let yourself go 
   D          D7M                    D6            D       D6 
So please be sweet, my chickadee and when I kiss ya, just say to me 
       D            Cdim            Em7             A7 
It's delightful, it's delicious, it's delectable, it's delirious 
      Em7         A7         A7/13-         D6 
It's dilemma, it's de-limit, it's deluxe, it's de-lovely.
