Etta James - Mellow Fellow chords
Start Jamming...
I've been trying, trying, trying, trying, trying
I've [Am]
been trying
[G] But no matter, no matter how
[Bb] [C]
I just can't
Can't hear a thing
I can't [Am] talk
[Cm] These [G] melancholies
[C] Every time I walk down the street
Nothing but cool cats to do our meeting
[F]
Hot milk suits [Cm] fitting to a tee
They got slim gym ties, [Cm] sharp ass feet
That's [C] why I can't
No, no, no
I can't, no
[Cm] [G] These melancholies
[C] Voting cards, Cadillacs, Mustangs of a penny
Telephones, record players in them, who knows how many
[F]
Dime springs, watches, [Cm] alpacas, sweaters
They got alligator shoes and coats made out of [C] blood I can't
[G] These melancholies
[C] Come to take you out when they meet your mom [Am] and dad
Say a few nice words and you're spit from [F] the pad
Make a few stops in all the swinging places
Thinking in the douche it look awful of popular faces
[C] That's why I can't
No, no, no
I can't, no, no
These [G] melancholies
[C] On the way home you might stop, you wanna pause
Pull your squeeze until I catch you in the dark
[F] They got a strong conversation and we girls go for it
Some of these cats got no
All I know is [C] that's why I can't
No, no, no
[Cm] These [G] melancholies
No, [C]
no, no
I can't
