As recorded by Elvis Costello (From the 1977 Album MY AIM IS TRUE - CD DELUXE EDITION) [Intro] E Am E C#m C#7 F#m C#m C7 B7 [Verse 1]
E                          G#
It's easy to do, it's not so easy to say

              F#                      E
I was talking to you when you took my tongue away

A        G#
I hear a melody and I feel so ashamed

      C#      F#                               E
I got nothing you'd need and you're so hard to blame
[Chorus]
A        E       A        E
I hear a melody, I hear a melody

A        E                 F#         E     Am E  C#7  F#7 C#7 B7           
I hear a melody and you're so hard to blame
[Verse 1]
E                              G#                  
You will never work out I know that's easy to see

       E          F#                 B          E       
So the way that I want you to stay is hidden in me

A            G#            D#m           G#           
You'll never know the fool I'm feeling tonight

A                      F#                            E             
But it's best that you never know 'cause I know it's not right
[Chorus]
A        E       A        E                               
I hear a melody, I hear a melody

A        E            F#            E                                
I hear a melody and I know it's not right

A        E       A        E                                
I hear a melody, I hear a melody

A        E            F#            E      Am E                 
I hear a melody and I know it's not right
