I'm In The Mood For Love

Written by 
Jimmy McHugh and Dorothy Fields
Tabbed by 
Eyolf Østrem

Sung by Bob Dylan four times during 1988 and 1989

The D7 in the bridge can very well be played (and I think that’s what Dylan does) x54530

Intro (and basic melody, as well as chords for the verses. The swift upward sweep in line 2 can be replaced with a sustained G)

  C       Dm' g    Dm EmF G  F  G  C       Em7       D#m7Dm7

I'm In The Mood For Love
G                     C
Simply because you're near me
Em7             D#m7   Dm7
Funny, but when you're near me
G/f                 C
I'm in the mood for love.

..love

Heaven is in your eyes
True as the stars we're under
Is it any wonder
I'm in the mood for love?

Dm                   C
Why stop to think of whether
Dm                      C
This little dream might fade?
Em                     Am
We've put our hearts together
D7'
Now we are one,
G(sus4)  G
I'm not afraid!

If there's a cloud above
If it should rain we'll let it
But for tonight, forget it!
I'm in the mood for love.
