Biography:
Ella Jane Fitzgerald (April 25, 1917 – June 15, 1996) was an American jazz vocalist with a vocal range spanning three octaves (D?3 to D?6). Often referred to as the "First Lady of Song" and the "Queen of Jazz" or just simply "Lady Ella", she was noted for her purity of tone, impeccable diction, phrasing and intonation, and a "horn-like" improvisational ability, particularly in her scat singing.
Fitzgerald was a notable interpreter of the Great American Songbook.

(Chords by Joan's Genius 2000)
Intro: C Gm C Gm and so on....

I'm feeling mighty lonesome

I walk the floor & watch the door

And in between I drink
Cm F
Black coffee
Cm F C Gm C Gm
Love's hand-me-down brew
Dm C
Well, I'll never know a Sunday
F G C Gm C Gm
In this weekday rule
Verse 2:
C Gm
I'm talking to the shadows
C Gm
One o'clock to four
C Gm
And oh how slow the moments go
C Gm
When all I do is pour
Cm F
Black coffee
Cm F C Gm C Gm
Since the blues caught my eye
Dm C
Well I'm hanging out on Monday
F G C Gm C Gm
My Sunday dreams to dry
Bridge:
F Cm
Well, a man is born to go on lovin'
Fm C
A woman's born to weep & fret
Em Gm
To stay home & tend her lovin'
F#
And drown her past regrets
F
In coffee & cigarettes
Verse 3:
C Gm
Alone all the morning
C Gm
Mourning all the night
C Gm
And, in between, it's nicotine
C Gm
And not much heart to fight
Cm F
Black coffee
Cm F C Gm C
Feeling low as the ground
Gm Dm C
It's drivin' me crazy, this waiting for my baby
F G C Gm C Gm
To maybe come around
(repeat Bridge & Verse 3)
Outro:

My nerves have gone to pieces

My hair is turning gray

All I do is drink black coffee

Since my man's gone away...
