My favorite version of this song is the 1959 Downbeat Magazine
jazz album of the year version by Johnnie Smith and Stan Getz. Johnnie's
trademark sound is the use of what I believe are called chromatic chords. They
are typically stretch chords that can be quite challenging to the tendons when
initially used. eg. I dont really know how to notate like this but here is
an attempt key E flat----first two bars

E flat 6th E flat 6/9 Eflat maj 9 Eflat 6/9 Fmi9 B flat 13 alt

I thought this was kind of fun when I first noticed it
Hope it helps

The melody was played all on the second string.

...why would you want to play Eb6 up on the 13th. fret
... it canbe played as Eb6/9 so much more comfortably
on the 6th fret with pinky on melody at the 8th fret
... (spread chord ala Johnny Smith...) ... and the
next chord is even more diifcult ... seems to me that
this arrangement just makes something that can be
easier and sounds better, more difficult.....the point
is to play the arrangement "naturally" and with ease
... those 6th. chords with the large stretch are
difficult even with big hands ...

I had sent paradisemusictn Johhny smith's arrangement
for "moonlight" ... but it had no fingerings ...
