Chords with lyrics
G+G Bb9Bb9 Cm5-/7 G+G
Some folks were meant to live in clover
G+G Bb9Bb9 Am7Am7 D7D7
But they are such a chosen few
G+G C minorCm G+G G6G6 Cm5-/7
And clover, being green, is something I've never seen
G+G Cm7Cm7 D9D9 D7D7
'Cause I was born to be blue
G+G Bb9Bb9 Cm5-/7 G+G
When there's a yellow moon above me
G+G Bb9Bb9 Am7Am7 D7D7
They say that moon beams I should view
G+G C minorCm G+G G6G6 Cm5-/7
But moon beams, being gold, are something I can't behold
G+G Am7Am7 D7D7 G+G
'Cause I was born to be blue
Bridge:
Am7Am7 D7D7 Am7Am7 D7D7
When I met you, the world was bright and sunny
Am7Am7 D9D9 D7D7 G+G
When you left, the curtain fell
E7E7 A7A7 E7E7 A7A7
I want to laugh, but nothing strikes me funny
A7A7 Am7Am7 D9D9 Am7Am7 D7D7
Now my world's a faded pastel
G+G Bb9Bb9 Cm5-/7 G+G
Well, I guess I'm luckier than some folks
G+G Bb9Bb9 Am7Am7 D7D7
I've known the thrill of loving you
G+G C minorCm G+G G6G6 Cm5-/7
And that alone is more than I was created for
G+G Am7Am7 D7D7 G+G
'Cause I was born to be blue
