Verse 1:
Am        Am(maj7) Am7             D#dim7
 Sunday is gloomy,  my hours are slumberless
Dm      Dm/C         Bdim7             E
 Dearest, the shadows I live with are numberless
Dm          Dm/C           Bdim7   E
 Little white flowers will never awaken you
Am7          Am6              Bdim7     E
 Not when the black coach of sorrow has taken you
Am       Am(maj7)     Am7          D#dim7
 Angels have no thought of ever returning you
Dm            Dm/C         Dm/C        Bdim7   E Bdim7
 Would they be angry if I thought of joining you?

Chorus:
         Am
 Gloomy Sunday

Verse 2:
Am        Am(maj7) Am7             D#dim7
 Gloomy is Sunday,   with shadows I spend it all
Dm          Dm/C       Bdim7    E
 My heart and I have decided to end it all
Dm     Dm/C                Bdim7               Bdim7   E
 Soon there'll be flowers and prayers that are sad, I know
Am7       Am6               Bdim7           E
 Let them not weep, let them know that I'm glad to go
Am        Am(maj7) Am7                   D#dim7
 Death is no dream, for in death I am caressing you
Dm             Dm/C         Dm/C           Bdim7   E Bdim7
 With the last breath of my heart I'll be blessing you

Chorus:
E        Am
 Gloomy Sunday

Verse 3:
Amaj7   E
 Dreaming,
Amaj7      E        F#7 Amaj7 E
 I was only dreaming
Amaj7         F#7sus2   E/G#         Amaj7     Bdim7   Ddim/G#
 I wake and I find you asleep in the deep of my heart, deep
Am        Am(maj7)
 Darling, I hope
Am7                 D#dim7
 that my dream never haunted you
Dm        Dm/C          Bdim7        E        Bdim7
 My heart is telling you how much I wanted you

Chorus:
         Am7
 Gloomy Sunday
