"Mood Indigo"

D   A          D   B7 C   A   D    A7
You ain't been blue;  no, no, no.
D    A    D    B7
You ain't been blue,
Fm7                  A    A9  A
Till you've had that mood indigo.
D Dm7        D7               G6    G5         Gm
That feelin'    goes stealin' down, down to my shoes
A     D  A   D   B7            C    A    D       A7
While I sit and sigh, "Go 'long blues".

D      D6   D   E      E6 E
Always get that mood indi-go,
A6       A    A7       D    Fdim A
Since my baby said goodbye.
D      D6  D   E           E6   E
In the evenin' when lights are low,
Fm7                     A
I'm so lonesome I could cry.

D9                        D           Dm7  G
'Cause there's nobody who cares about me,
           Gm7
I'm just a soul who's
           A        A7/5+  D
Bluer than blue can be.
D      D6       E      E6 E
When I get that mood indi-go,
A6              A   A7  D    Fdim   A
I could lay me down and die.

D   A          D   B7 C   A   D    A7
You ain't been blue;  no, no, no.
D    A    D    B7
You ain't been blue,
Fm7                  A    A9  A
Till you've had that mood indigo.
D Dm7        D7               G6    G5         Gm
That feelin'    goes stealin' down, down to my shoes
A     D  A   D   B7            C    A    D       A   D
While I sit and sigh, "Go 'long blues".
