The Mood That I'm In
Words & Music by Abner Silver & Al Sherman
Recorded by Billie Holiday, 1936
A F#m C#m7-5 Cdim G#7
Never dared to have your arms around me,
G7 Gdim F#7
Not that I considered it a sin;
F7 Fdim E
But tonight I want your arms around me --
D9 Bm7-5 Cdim E7
It's the mood that I'm in.
A F#m C#m7-5 Cdim G#7
Can it be the music that they're playin'
G7 Gdim F#7
Or the magic of the violin
F7 Fdim E
That intrigues my heart into obeyin'?
D9 Bm7-5 E7 D9 A
It's the mood that I'm in.
Bridge:
Em7/9 Cdim A7/6
Maybe it's the cocktail that I'm sippin'
D Em7 Edim D
That helps to put me in this frame of mind.
C#7 Fdim(III) C#7
Maybe it's be - cause of you I'm slippin' --
A Em7 D9 A7
Tonight I'm so romantic'ly inclined.
A F#m C#m7-5 Cdim G#7
So speak to me of love in words so tender,
G7 Gdim F#7
Let the rhapsody of life begin;
F7 Fdim E
I could give my heart in sweet surrender --
D9 Bm7-5 E7 D9 A
It's the mood that I'm in.
