#1.(Slow Blues)
Dm                                          D7
The thrill is gone, the thrill is gone away.
Gm                                           Dm   G Dm
The thrill is gone, baby, the thrill is gone away.
Bbm7                           A7
You know you've done me wrong, baby,
                        Dm
And you'll be sorry someday.

Dm                                         D7
The thrill is gone, it's gone away from me.
Gm                                                 Dm      G Dm
The thrill is gone, baby, the thrill has gone away from me.
Bbm7                        A7    A7     Dm            Ab A7             
Although I'm still live on, baby, but so lonely I'll be.

The thrill is gone, it's gone away for good.
D7      Gm                                       Dm
Oh, The thrill is gone, baby, it's gone away for good.
Bbm7                                A7
Some day I know I'll be open-armed, baby,
            Dm                     Ab A7
Just like I know a good man should.

#4.
    Dm                                                   D7
You know I'm free, free now baby, I'm free from your spell.
    Bbm7              A7    A7                       Dm  Ab A7 Dm D
And now that it's all over, all I can do is wish you well.
