[Intro]
G   A7  Am7  D7

[Verse 1]
G
Who's the livin' dolly with the beautiful eyes?
G
What a pair of lips -- I'd like to try 'em for size.
C
I'll just tell her, "Baby, won't you swing it with me?"
G
Hope she tells me "Maybe" -- what a wing it will be.
D7
So I said politely, "Darlin' may I intrude?"
 Am7    G       C6        Eb7 D7 G6
She said  don't keep me waitin' when I'm in the mood."

[Verse 2]
G
First I held her lightly and we started to dance;
G
Then I held her tightly -- what a dreamy romance!
C
And I said, "Hey, baby, it's a quarter to three...
G
There's a mess of moonlight, won't you share it with me?"
D7
"Well," she answered, "Mister, don't cha know that it's rude
Am7    G      C6          Eb7 D7 G6
To keep  my two lips waitin' when they're in the mood?"

[Chorus 1]
G     Gdim Am7           D7b9
In the mood  --  that's what she told me,
G     Gdim Am7         D7b9
In the mood  --  and when she told me
G     Gdim Am7         D7b9
In the mood  --  my heart was skippin';
   D7      Ddim       D7 Eb7 D7  G6
It didn't take me long to say, "I'm in the mood now."

[Chorus 2]
G     Gdim   Am7        D7b9
In the mood (oh joy)  for all her kissin',
G     Gdim   Am7       D7b9
In the mood (oh joy)  her crazy lovin',
G     Gdim   Am7        D7b9
In the mood (oh boy)  what I was missin' --
  D7       Ddim       D7 Eb7 D7  G6
It didn't take me long to say "I'm in the mood now."
