Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[C]Up [G]abo[D]ve [G]me are the skies
Like the twinkle [C]in your [G]eyes
[C]These things are the [G]color of the [D]blues
In the [G]mail your letter came
The ink and paper [C]look [G]the same
Yes, [C]blue must be the [G]color [D]of the blu[G]es

[Verse 2]
The bluebird [C]sitting in a tree
Seems to [G]sympathize with me
For [C]he's not singing [G]like he used [D]to do
The pretty [G]waters in the sea
Feel as cold as [C]you left [G]me
Yes, [C]blue must be the [G]color [D]of the
[G]blues

[Interlude 1]
[G][C][G][C][G][D][G]

[Verse 3]
There's [G]a rainbow overhead
With more blue than [C]gold and [G]red
[C]Blue must be the [G]color angels [D]choose
A blue [G]dress you proudly wore
When you left to re[C]turn no [G]more
Yes, [C]blue must be the [G]color [D]of the blu[G]es

[Verse 4]
Blue days [C]come and blue days go
How I [G]feel, nobody knows
[C]Life is mighty [G]empty [D]without you
There's a [G]blue note in each song
That I sing since [C]you are [G]gone
Yes, [C]blue must be the [G]color [D]of the blu[G]es
Yes, [C]blue must be the [G]color [D]of the blu[G]es[C][G]
