[Intro 1]
[E]

[Verse 1]
[Eb]Due [D]to t[G]he tragic
lowness of my brow,
all music that's highbrow
[Bdim]gets me [E]upset.[G][Adim][C#dim][G]
[C]Each [G]time I [C]hear a
[B]strain [C]of Stravinsky's,
I hurry to [Adim]Minsky's [Eb]and try to f[Ebdim]orget.
[D]I d[E]on'[A]t[Gaug][B][D][G]
like Schubert's music
or Schumann's.
I'm one of those humans
who only [C]goes in for [E]Berlin
and [Am]Vincent Heum[E]ann's. I'm
[A]for the guy[Bbdim] that eludes
[G]Fox son[E]atas
[G]and [E]Chop[C]in preludes
[B]So if some nice [E]man I meet
I always [A]murmur, [D]toot [G]sweet[C][A][D]
[E]If [Eb]you w[E]ant to thrill me
And drill me for your crew
Sing me a melody
[A]that's [D]red, hot, and blue
[G]Bef[Em]ore you[A] exp[E]and on
that grand cottage for two,
sing me a melody
[Am]that's [A]red[G], hot[D], and blue.[G]
[Em]I can [G]take Sevilleus or Delius,
but I swear [B]I'd [Cdim]throw my[C] be
[Am]st pal away for Ca[D]lloway.
[E]So when we're all set
and I [D#]get [E]married to you,
don't let that violin [Am]start[Ebdim]
[A]playing [C#dim]low an d [Bbdim]grin.[D]
It [E]may [B]be sweet as [E]sin[Em],
but [C#dim]it's not [Eb]red, [G]hot,[A] and blue.[G][E][D][A][B][A][Am][A]
[Am][A][C#dim][Fdim]
[C][G][B][G][C][Bb][C][Am][E][A][B][A][Am][A][Am][A][C#dim]
[D][B][C][B][C]
[Dm]If y[Fdim]ou ask m[E]e, [Edim]toots,[E]
just what puts me in a [Edim]stew
Just sing [E]me a melody
[Am]that's [A]red[G], hot[D] and blue
[G]If [Em]I'm q[E]uite correct,
you expect [Edim]me to c[E]ome through[Edim]
Just sing [E]me a melody
[A]that's [G]red, [D]hot and [G]blue
[Em]This [G]craze that's pursuing me
may ruin [D]me,
[G]but my Waterloo[C] won't be
Welling[Am]ton b[D]ut Ellington.
[Eb]So i[D]f yo[E]u feel tonight's
like a light evening for [Edim]two,
[E]I've no desire to [Am]hear
Flag[A]staff's Brunhilde [C#dim]dear.
[D]She[B] waves a pretty spear,
but she's [C#dim]not red, [Eb]hot, and blue![G]
