Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[Dsus4][G][A][D][C#][A][Asus4][Bb][A][Asus4][A]
[Eb][D]

[Verse 1]
Some folks [Eb]were meant to live [D]in clover[Ab][G]
But they are [Cm]such [F]a chosen
[Bb]few[A][Aaug]
[Dm]And clover being[Eb] green is so[Dm]mething
I've [G]never [Gm]seen
'Cause I [Bb]was born to be [Em]blue[A][Eb]

[Verse 2]
[Dsus4]When ther[D]e's a yellow [Eb]moon
[Dsus4]above me[D][G]
They say [C]there's moon[F]beams
[Bb]I should vie[Eb]w[A]
[Dm]But moonbeams being gold[Eb]
[Dm]are something I can't [G]behold
[Bb]'Cause I was b[Bbm]orn to b[Gdim]e
[Dm]blue
[C][F]

[Verse 3]
[Db]
When I [Eb]met y[Bbm]ou the world was[Db]
bright and [Eb]sunny[Bbm]
When [Eb]you left the curtain [Ab]fell
I'd like [Ebm]to lau[Ab]gh but nothing
[Db]strikes me [Bbm]funny[Db]
[Eb]Now my w[G]orld's a[C]
faded [F]pas[Em]tel[Eb]

[Verse 4]
[D]I guess I'm[Eb] luckier than som[D]e folks
[G]I've known the thr[C]ill of[F]
lov[Bb]in' y[Aaug]ou
[Dm]And that alone is more[Eb]
[Dm]than I was created for[G]
[Bb]'Cause I was born to b[A]e blue

[Interlude 1]
[Dm][D][Eb][D]
[Bb][Ab][G][F][Dm][Bb][F][Aaug]

[Verse 5]
[Dm]And that alone is mo[Eb]re than[Dm]
I was created [G]for[Bb]
And I was [A]born [Dm]to be[Bb] blu[E]e[Eb]

[Outro 1]
[D]
