GLOOMY SUNDAY - Billie Holiday
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tabbed by: omnipotato
Tuning: Standard
This is sort of a combination of the original Hungarian version and Billie
Holiday's version (the bridge "Dreaming, I was only dreaming" is not included
since it wasn't in the original, and I think it kills the whole mood of the
song).

[Verse 1]
Em Em7
Sunday is gloomy;
C#m7b5 Am
My hours are slumberless.
Em Am6/9
Dearest, the shadows
A#dim7 B7
I live with are numberless.
CM7
Little white flowers
Am7 B7
Will never awaken you;
G Am6/9
Not where the black coach of
A#dim7 B7
Sorrow has taken you.
Em Em7
Angels have no thought
C#m7b5 Am
Of ever returning you.
Em Am6/9
Would they be angry
A#dim7 B7
If I thought of joining you?
B7b9 B7 Em
Gloomy Sunday
[Verse 2]
Em Em7
Gloomy is Sunday;
C#m7b5 Am
With shadows I spend it all.
Am7
My heart and I
B7
Have decided to end it all.
