In a mellow    tone,   feeling fancy   free

And I'm not  alone   I've got company

If you mope and groan,     something's gotta  give

Just go your way  and laugh and play

How I love when the band starts to play

They play such sweet  music that they blow all my cares away. 
      Cdim  Bm5-/7   D  Dm        Dm6    A    C#m7 F#7 
I should knock  on  wood   when the saxes moan 
       B7       D  Cdim  Bm5-/7    Cdim  Bm5-/7 E7 
'Cause it feels so good    in a mellow  tone

In a mellow    tone     that's the way to live

If you mope and groan,     something's  gotta  give 
  F#m    Bm7  D  Dm      Dm6     A   C#m7   F#7 
Just go your way  and laugh and play 
     B7       D Cdim Bm5-/7   Cdim  Bm5-/7 A6 Cdim A6 E7/9 A6 
There's joy unknown      in a mellow  tone.
