Ella Fitzgerald – Black Coffee (Ukulele)

    C              Gm
I'm feeling mighty lonesome

C                Gm
 Haven't slept a wink

  C                Gm
I walk the floor & watch the door

    C            Gm
And in between I drink

Cm    F
Black coffee

Cm         F          C   Gm    C   Gm
  Love's hand-me-down brew

           Dm           C
Well, I'll never know a Sunday

F        G      C    Gm   C   Gm
 In this weekday rule

    C              Gm
I'm talking to the shadows

C               Gm
 One o'clock to four

    C               Gm
And oh how slow the moments go

C                 Gm
 When all I do is pour 

Cm    F
Black coffee

Cm          F     C         Gm    C   Gm
  Since the blues caught my eye

         Dm             C
Well I'm hanging out on Monday

F           G      C   Gm   C   Gm
  My Sunday dreams to dry

        F                    Cm
Well, a man is born to go on lovin'

  Fm                     C
A woman's born to weep & fret

   Em                   Gm
To stay home & tend her lovin'

    F#
And drown her past regrets

   F
In coffee & cigarettes

C     Gm
 Alone all the morning

C         Gm
 Mourning all the night

C               Gm
 And, in between, it's nicotine

C                   Gm
 And not much heart to fight

Cm    F
Black coffee

Cm        F   C      Gm    C   
  Feeling low as the ground

                Gm          Dm             C
It's drivin' me crazy, this waiting for my baby

F      G  C     Gm   C   Gm
 To maybe come around

Dm
  My nerves have gone to pieces

Cm
  My hair is turning gray

F
  All I do is drink black coffee

G     
  Since my man's gone away...
