Recorded by Jones George

(Capo on 3)

Intro.:  | (G)  | (D) (A) | (D)  | (D) (A)

Up a-(D)bove me are the skies like the twinkle (G)in your (D)eyes
These things (G)are the (D)colors of the (A)blues

In the (D)mail your letter came, the ink and paper (G)looked the (D)same
Blue must (G)be the (D)color (A) of the (D)blues

(Chorus)
Bluebird (G)sitting in the trees seems (D)to sympathize with me
But (G)he's not singing (D)like he used to (A)do

The pearly (D)waters in the sea feel as cold as (G)you left (D)me
Yes, (G)blue must be the (D)color (A) of the (D)blues

Inst.:  | (G)  | (D) (A) | (D)  | (D) (A)

There's a (D)rainbow overhead with more blue than (G)gold and (D)red
Blue must (G)be the (D)color angels (A)choose

A blue (D)dress you proudly wore when you left to re-(G)turn no (D)more
Blue must (G)be the (D)color (A) of the (D)blues

(Chorus)
Blue days (G)come and blue days go, how I (D)feel nobody knows
(G)Life is mighty (D)empty without (A)you

There's a (D)blue note in each song that I sing since (G)you were (D)gone
Yes, (G)blue must be the (D)color (A)of the (D)blues (G) | (D)
