Some say the original chords for that section (F#-7 - Fm7 - E-7 - Ebo ) are actually:
|A-7 |Ab-7 |G7 |D7 |
Once again, more people play the version that's written in the chart. The reason I post this is not to further my reputation as a chord snob but because it's good to know both the popular way and the obscure-but-perhaps-more-original way, so you can synch in with the bassist, depending on what they think.
I also know alot more people who would use AbMaj7 for the first chord, rather than Dm11.

"Like the beat, beat, beat of the tom-tom..."
I'm a big believer in doing verses, and the one for Night and Day really sets up the tune.
I've got a lead sheet of the verse in Noteworthy Composer format, arranged for one guitar (and voice). I have the original sheet music for piano around somewhere. If you have trouble finding it, email me.
If you don't have Noteworthy composer (and everybody should), um... it doesn't always work to send .nwc files as .pdf, but seems to me they can be saved as bitmaps or something. Or, heck, I could just print it off and mail it to you.

The gig is about to start, and the steel player leans over to the singer
and says "OK, "Night and Day", start in C, sing a bar of 7/8, then a bar
of 7/16, 2 bars of 3/4, 3 bars of 4/4, a bar of 3/16, go up a 1/2 step on
the 3rd bar, back to C for the 4th bar, down a minor 3rd for the bridge,
and the last A in Db with a modulation to D in the last bar, which is
7/8..."
Singer: "But that's way too hard!"
Steeler: "Well, that's exactly how you did it last night!"
