[Intro]

C Bb G F

C Bb G F



[Verse 1]

            C           Bb

Should you awake, dear, from your beauty sleep

             G                F

To find your room swimming in blue and green

            C            Bb

Should you awake to feel like you never slept

         G

And feel so very old

                F

Well, don't you feel alone



[Chorus 1]

            Em

I'm kind of blue

F

Blue for you again

              Em

I guess I'm a fool

         D

At least I'm not innocent

         G

But what to do?

   F       Bb          G

Whatever I touch turns blue



[Verse 2]

              C

And should you find yourself lost

          Bb

But in no need of sympathy

G                                    F

Calm down to the beach and watch the waves come in

              C

I dream the ocean was in my house

           Bb

I feel the surf against my skin

  G                                         F

I just can't keep the waves from dragging me down



[Chorus 2]

               Em

But when you say ooh

             F

Baby, you're my best friend

       Em

Then I lose

         D

I lose my common sense

   G

I'm blue

F           Bb             G

I'm kind of blue, it's the truth



[Verse 3]

            C           Bb

Should you awake, dear, from your beauty sleep

             G                F

To find your room swimming in blue and green

            C            Bb

Should you awake to feel like you never slept

         G

And feel so very old

                F

Well, don't you feel alone



[Chorus 3]

            Em

I'm kind of blue

             F

Blue for you again

              Em

I guess I'm a fool

                D

At least I'm not innocent

        G

I may be blue

F             Bb              G

But don't you let me make you blue too
