I'm just starting out, so I'm hopeless at figuring out chords, but I was wondering if someone might be able to help? This is such a gorgeous little song -- one of my favorites!

Thanks for any and all help!
I love this song since I heard the version by Meredith Axelrod (

Been trying to work out the uke chords as there is nothing online.
Here's what I've got so far:-
You're a heavenly thing
Preamble/Intro:-
I'd [D7]like to thank your [G7] daddy and your [C]mother
For [D7]bringing up a [G7]child like [C]you;
[E7]Although I know there'll never be an [Am]other,
To make a [D7]dream come true,
Here's what they [Gaug]like to do!
Verse1
[C]They took the moonlight out of the skies
[D7]And put the moonlight right in your eyes
[G7]Like a June night,
You're a heavenly [C]thing
[C]They took the fragrance out of the dew
[D7]And sprinkled roses all over you
[G7]Like a garden,
You're a heavenly [C]thing[CM][C7]
They made a [F]clinging vine
Your embrace
[C]Stars that shine light your face
To com[D7]bine everything
On your [G7]lips, they put the [Gaug]breath of Spring
[C]And then they finished, called it a day
[D7]They took the model and threw it away
[G7]Like an angel,
You're a heavenly [C]thing (to end 2nd time)
(Preamble 2)
I’m [D7]told that there are [G7]only seven [C]wonders
that [D7]help make the [G7]world so [C]grand
[E7]But you are the [Am]wonder of all wonders
I’d give my [D7]heart and hand
Fot what your [Gaug]parents planned (repeat from verse 1
(End)
[G7]Baby, just like an angel,
You're a heavenly [C]thing
Hope this helps
Ian
