Billie Holiday (* 7. April 1915 in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania als Eleanora Fagan Gough; 

Eleanora Fagan Gough (Philadelphia, 7 de abril de 1915 - Nueva York, 17 de julio de 1959), Billie Holiday, cantante estadounidense de jazz, también llamada Lady Day. Junto con Sarah Vaughan y Ella Fitzgerald, está considerada por muchos como la más importante e influyente voz femenina del jazz.

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

I Can't Give You Anything But Love

Lady Day: The Complete Billie Holiday On Columbia 

Verse 1:

[G7]Blue [C]moon, [Am7] [Dm7]
You saw me [G7]standing a[C]lone [Am7] [Dm7]
Without a [D7]dream in my [CM7]heart, [Am7] [D7]
Without a [F]love of my [C]own. [Am7] [Dm7]

Verse 2:

[G7]Blue [C]moon, [Am7] [Dm7]
You knew just [G7]what I was [C]there for, [Am7] [Dm7]
You heard me [D7]saying a [CM7]prayer for [Am7] [D7]
[F]Someone I [G]really could [C]care for. [F] [Fm] [C]

Bridge:

And then there [Dm7]suddenly ap[G7]peared be[C]fore me
The only [Dm7]one my heart could [G7]ever [C]hold;
I heard some[Fm7]body whisper, "[Bb7]Please a[Eb]dore me."
And when I [G]looked, the moon had [D7]turned to [G]gold. [D7] [G7]

Verse 3:

[G7]Blue [C]moon, [Am7] [Dm7]
Now I'm no [G7]longer a[C]lone [Am7] [Dm7]
Without a [D7]dream in my [CM7]heart, [Am7] [D7]
Without a [F]love of my [C]own. [Am7] [Dm7]

This song is really good; if any of you have seen the
movie Public Enemies, I'm sure you know which scene it's in.
Some of the variations of the chords I used don't sound
that good, so I put the ones I think sound best below.

Whether you want me to stay or go

Gm6			         D7
You won't believe me, I love you only

I'd rather be lonely
Gm6	        Eb6/9	 Eb
Then happy with somebody else

Gm6
You might find the night time

The right time for kissin'

D7

Bb7		      Gm6		Eb6/9	  Eb
Regrettin' instead of forgettin' with somebody else

Smell of mag - nolia, sweet And fresh,

The Complete Commodore/Decca Masters

Verse 1:
           B
I'm going back to the time when we owned this town
      E
Down Powder Mill Lane, in the battlegrounds
C#m        B                   G#m  B     F#
We were friends and lovers and clueless clowns


Verse 2:
                      B       
I didn't know I'd be finding out now I was torn from you
         E
When we thought about things we were gonna do
C#m      B                    G#m B  F# 
We were wide eyed dreamers and wiser too


Chorus:
               E              B 
Go down to the rides on East Parade,
        G#m                   F#
by the lights of the Palace Arcade
                    E                     G#m   F#   
Watch night coming down on the Sovereign Light Café


Verse 3:
                          B
I'm begging you for some sign, but you've still got nothing to say
        E
Don't turn your back on me, don't walk away
C#m     B                   G#m  B   F#
I'm a better man now than I was that day


Chorus:
                      E              B 
Let's go down to the rides on East Parade,
        G#m                   F#
by the lights of the Palace Arcade
                    E                     G#m   F#   
Watch night coming down on the Sovereign Light Café

                 E               B
Go down to the bandstand on the pier
           G#m                    F#
Watch the drunks and the lovers appear
                      E                     G#m   F#     
Take time, just the stars at the Sovereign Light Café


Bridge:
   E        B           F#
I wheel my bike off the train,
        F#
Up the North Trade Road,
 E        B             F# 
Look for you on Marley Lane
                          G#m
In every building, every streetlight
                   E               F#  G#m  B  F#
Oh why did we ever go so far from home?


Verse 4:
                        B
You keep on leaving me mile long traces of who you are
         E
You can get a big house and a faster car
C#m      B                    G#m   B  F#
You can run away boy, but you won't go far


Chorus:
                      E              B
Let's go down to the rides on East Parade,
        G#m                   F#
by the lights of the Palace Arcade
                    E                     G#m   F#   
Watch night coming down on the Sovereign Light Café

                    E                B
Stroll down to the bandstand on the pier
           G#m                    F#
Watch the drunks and the lovers appear
                     E                      G#m   F#
Take time, just the stars at the Sovereign Light Café

American Dream 

G Bm Em A
Well everybody's lookin' for something they can't find,
Walking straight ahead blind-folded production line,
Only taking time for one type of shoe-shine.
Don't look left/right now you got a street fine.
Everybody lookin' for just a little more.
Working late-nights trying to fight off the day glow.
Waiting for the come-around but it is a no show.
Driving in the fast lane lookin' for the slow-mo...

C D A
Oh whats in store I don't know anymore.
Oh what's inside 'cos I can't hide from it no more.
Oh what you see well it's not me anymore.
Oh I don't know well I don't know man anymore because 

G Bm Em A
I tell you once I tell you twice, gonna be a long time
But you don't take no one's advice, gonna be a long time you,
Where were you, you weren't listenin', gonna be a long time
Gonna be a long time.

G Bm Em A
So now you're face down, face lookin like a frying pan.
Hitting up the clubs trying to feel like a real man.
Beating your chest just like you're King Kong but you're just a gui-tar no-string no-song.
Feeling free like ya don't even know it, man you're towing the line hoping you just don't blow it.
Man ya stuck in the mainframe trying to win the big game so much potential it even makes it more of a shame, shame, shame...
Here we go again, same old shit just another name.
Looking at the destiny there in your palm,
But now you got your strings but you got no song.
So sing, sing, sing - shake it like a chicken wing.
It's not what you get it's about what you bring-bring-bring.
So bring it, bring it to the table, not because you have to 'cos you're willing and you're able!

C D A
Oh what's in store I don't know anymore.
Oh what's inside 'cos I can't hide from it no more.
Oh what you see well it's not me anymore.
Oh I don't know, I don't know anymore because 

G Bm Em A
I tell you once I tell you twice, gonna be a long time.
But you don't take no one's advice, gonna be a long time.
You, where were you, you weren't listening, gonna be a long time.
Gonna be a long time.

[intro x2]
A  E  D A

A                                        E
when there's no place you feel at home
              D                               A
and you think you'd be better off alone
A                                          E
when you think there's no reason to try
               D                           A
and you hate yourself and wanna die

A                                      E
when you're filled with anxiety
             D                   A
and everyone's your enemy
A                                        E
when you wish you were someone else
                 D                        A
and you wanna go out and kill yourself

because you think you can't do your best
A                                         E
when you write yourself a stupid song
           D                        A
to remind yourself that you forgot

Overreacting

C#
There's a portrait
     Ab
In a back room
           F#
Which I'll keep for days upon
          C#
Which I relent 
              B
And gaze for hours on
    Bbm                  F#
The muscle, skin and bone
         Ab
Of some imaginary friend

F# Ab F#

        C#
So how about it 
        Ab
Show me please 
           F#
How I will look in twenty years
           C#
And let me please 
          B
Interpret history 
       Bbm        F#
In every line and scar 
               Ab                  
That's painted there in front of me

F# Ab F# Ab F# Ab

           C#
It doesn't matter
         Ab
What I'm thinking
       F#
What I tell myself to do
         C#      F#
I end up calling

       C#
I stay in to
                   Ab
Defrost the fridge
        F#
Now the kid has gone to bed
             C#
A feeling of dread
              B         
At least when she's around
    Bbm
The trouble's there
     F#                        Ab
It's worse to wake up with her falling 'round the room

F# Ab F# Ab F# Ab

       C#
Listen Johnny
              F#
You're like a mother
       C#                     F#
To the girl you've fallen for
                 C#
And you're still falling

       C#
Listen Johnny
              Ab
You're like a mother
       F#
To the girl you've fallen for
                 C#
And you're still falling

            B
And if they come tonight
       Bbm
You'll roll up tight
     F#             Ab
And take whatever's coming to you next (oh, oh oh oh)

 F# Ab to end.
