Gloomy Sunday - Billie Holiday chords

Key: Em Singer/Band: Billie Holiday


[Am]Sunday is [Am7/G]gloomy [D/F#]my hours are [F]slumberless.
[Am]Dearest, the [Am7/G]shadows I [D/F#]live with are [E]numberless.
[Dm]Little white [Dm7]flowers will [F]never [E]awaken you,
[Am]Not where the [Am7/G]black coach of [D/F#]sorrow has [E]taken you.
[Am]Angels [Am7/G]have no thought of [D/F#]ever [F]returning you --
[Am]Would they be [Am7/G]angry if [D/F#]I thought of [E]joining [F] [E]you?
[Am7] [E]Gloomy [Am] [Am7/G] [D/F#] [F] [E]Sunday.
[Am]Gloomy [Am7/G]Sunday, with [D/F#]shadows I [F]spend it all;
[Am]My heart and [Am7/G]I have [D/F#]decided to [E]end it all.
[Dm]Soon there'll be [Dm7]candles and [F]prayers that are [E]sad, I know;
[Am]Let them not [Am7/G]weep, let them [D/F#]know that I'm [E]glad to go.
[Am]Death is no [Am7/G]dream, for in [D/F#]death I'm [F]caressing [E]you;
[Am]With the last [Am7/G]breath of my [D/F#]soul, I'll be [E]blessing [F]
[E]you.
[Am7] [E]Gloomy [Am] [Am7/G] [D/F#] [F] [E]Sunday.
[A] [D9]Dreaming [A]- [D9]I was only [A] [D9] [A] [D9]dreaming.
I [A]wake and I [Bm7]find you [C#m7]asleep in the [F#m]deep of my [B7]heart,
[F7] [E7]dear.
[Am]Darling, I [Am7/G]hope that my [D/F#]dream never [F]haunted [E]you;
[Am]My heart is [Am7/G]telling you [D/F#]how much I [E]wanted [F] [E]you.
[Am7] [E]Gloomy [Am] [Am7/G] [D/F#] [F] [E] [Am]Sunday.
