Great jazz standard. Was asked for the chords so here they are.
For the downward progression in the line "Whether near to me or far, etc." I'd
recommend starting with the Gbm7b5 up around the 9th fret. As opposed to way down
on the 2nd and then switching when you go to the Ebdim7. But that probably goes without saying.
Leading into the Dm7b5 with a Dbm7b5 works quite nicely. Or a Dbdim7. Also cool.
Oh, and I think I play a G13 more often than I play a straight G7. Just sounds a little better.

Night and Dm7b5day G7 you are the Cmaj7one
Only Dm7b5you beneath the G7moon or under the Cmaj7sun
Whether Gbm7b5near to me or Fm7far it's Em7no matter darling Ebdim7where you are
I Dm7think of you G7 day and Cmaj7night
Night and Dm7b5day G7 why is it Cmaj7so
That this Dm7b5longing for you G7follows wherever I Cmaj7go
In the Gbm7b5roaring traffic's Fm7boom in the Em7silence of my Ebdim7lonely room
I Dm7think of you G7 day and Cmaj7night
Night and Ebmaj7day under the Cmaj7hide of me
There's an Ebmaj7oh such a hungry yearning burning inCmaj7side of me
And this Gbm7b5torment won't be Fm7through
Until you Em7let me spend my Ebdim7life making love to Dm7you
G7 Day and Cmaj7night
