Verse 

     Cm           Ab        G 
Melancholy mood forever haunts me 
     Cm                     Ab     G 
Steals upon me in the night, forever taunts me 
    Cm                        Ab            G 
Oh, what a lonely soul am I, stranded high and dry 
   Cm              Ab G 
By a melancholy mood 


Verse 

    Cm               Ab   G 
Gone is every joy and inspiration 
    Cm                       Ab     G 
Tears are all I have to show, no consolation  
            Cm                     Ab           G 
All I can see is grief and gloom, till the crack of doom 
    Cm         Ab     G 
Oh, melancholy mood 


[Refrão]
  Fm                        Bb 
Deep in the night I search for a trace 
       Eb                  
Of a lingering kiss, a warm embrace 
   Ab                           
But love is a whimsy, as flimsy as lace 
          Cm           Ab      G     
And my arms embrace an empty space 

Verse 
       Cm                 Ab      G 
Melancholy mood, why must you blind me 
    Cm          Ab      G                   Cm       Ab   G 
Pity me and break the chains, the chains that bind me 
    Cm        Ab       G          Cm     Ab      G  
Won't you release me, set me free, bring him to me 
    Cm           Ab   G 
Ah my melancholy mood
