[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
[Chorus]
  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
