Play a [Ab] melody, and life [F] is easy every way.
In [C] mellow tone, pretty soon the smoothies go.
In [A] mellow key, pretty soon you hear, pretty [Bbm] soon you love.
In mellow style, and when [Gb] you sing, [G] a joy [Ab] to hear,
you might [Gm] as well make [Cm] it sweet.
[Gbm] Life's [D] melody, just listen, see, but [Bbm] your lips are not sweet.
_ In mellow [Gm] tone, you ought to keep it soft and [Bb] low.
Less mellow [Ab] glow, and even harder loud, you know.
Kind of [C] mellow moan, pretty soon you're [Ebm] living on low.
[D] Sort of [G] indigo, pretty days [Db] ahead, pretty skies above.
A song of love, not [D] my fault.
And love [Ab] alone, [G] not my [Bb] _ [Fm] fault.
A [Bb] melody, not my favorite.
[Db] _ [Ab] In mellow tone.

Mother Nature sings.
Ain't nothing hurts sweeter than a [Gb] song.
For every single [Eb] little thing.
That Nature sings, all [F] the day [Gbm] long.
Be it certain the notes [Gm] you choose to play.
Life is a melody [D] played by a natural band.
Sing a melody nice [Bbm] to hear.
No, that's improving up the tempo.
But [Gb] if you really want to [D] row a crowd.
[Db] Get a little louder, everybody [Eb] gonna dig.
[Ab] _ [Gbm]
[Ab] Everybody _ knows, the mind's a-blowing all the way.
You've been a-hollering and yelling and [C] screaming to say.
[B] Later when they're looking back and [Ab] digging what you say.
Nothing [Am] ever. _
[Ab] _ [Db] Then you realize you're really talking out your head.
Don't retain your pause.
Have a little more, you're the beauty show.
Little by [Abm] the hour, let me hear you groan.
Let me hear the bubbles [Bb] go.
Let the music [B] play, [F] let it go.
A plenty [Eb] pretty [Bb] music I've known.
I'm a little soothing in [Eb] your company.
[Ab] Wasn't that mellow _ tone?
Everybody listen, everybody gotta hear.
[Dbm] You dig what's happening to me if you break.
[E] _ Now, [Db] listen to [Ab] me.
Slow and easy and mellow and breezy and bright.
Just right.
_ Yeah, [Bbm] say it's [Eb] mellow when people are [Ab] listening.
[Bbm] More sweet and low, the longer the road you [Fm] know.
_ [Db] Each sound anybody's putting down.
Gotta be their [Ab] very own in a mellow tone.
Light and fluffy as a cloud, never very [F] loud.
[Fm] Do you sing it sweet and mellow?
Tell them ever in a mellow and you're really gonna see.
Everything [A] you say and everything you do.
Is gonna hang around a little while.
Because it's really be true if I ever get blue.
And I know I do and so do you.
And never worry a minute, cause [Fm] you know, don't you know.
The blues are multi-colored.
I'll depend on how you dig them and depend on your outlook.
[Gb] Well, let me see weary blues, [Ab] sad blues, bad blues, false blues.
All kinds of blues, plenty of different kinds of [Bbm] hues.
Yeah, sure, but the only blue that we know is [Fm] indigo.
A song of love.
Yeah, a song of love.
_ _ Yeah, [Ab] love.
Yeah, and [Fm] love alone.
Chances you cannot find.
We're singing in a [Db] mellow tone.
In a [Ab] mellow tone.
With the feeling of our own. Oh yeah.
