G 
Who's the livin' daddy with the beautiful eyes? 
G 
What a pair of lips -- I'd like to try 'em for size. 
C 
I'll just tell him , "Baby, won't you swing it with me?" 
G 
Hope he tells me "Maybe" -- what a wing it will be. 
D7                                                
So I said politely, "Darlin' may I intrude?" 
Am7  G                G?             Am7 alt  D7  G6         D7 
He said don't keep me waitin' when I'm   in   the mood." 
G                                               F# 
First I held him lightly and we started to dance; 
G                                                            
Then I held her tightly -- what a dreamy romance! 
C                                                  F# 
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," he answered, "Baby, don't you know that it's rude 
Am7  G                G?               Am7 alt  D7  G6         D7 
To  keep my two lips waitin' when they're  in   the mood?" 
 
Interlude: 
G      G?  Am7 alt                 C? 
In the mood    --     that's what she told me, 
G      G?  Am7 alt              D 
In the mood    --   and when she told me 
G      G?  Am7 alt            D74 
In the mood   --   my heart was skippin'; 
   D7             F?              D7 G?  D7   G 
It didn't take me long to say, "I'm in  the mood now." 
G      G?    Am7 alt            C? 
In the mood (oh joy) for all her kissin', 
G      G?    Am7 alt           D 
In the mood (oh joy) her crazy lovin', 
G     G?     Am7 alt           D74 
In the mood (oh boy) what I was missin' --
