Blue on blue    (video)    (midi)

 

 Am                   G                 Bm

Blue on blue, heartache on heartache,

 Am                G                         Em

blue on blue now that we are through.

 Am                  G                  Bm

Blue on blue, heartache on heartache,

C                    D7                  G

    and I find I can't get over losing you.

 

    D          G             Em        Am        

1. I walk along the street we used to walk,

                                   C        - D

    two by two, lovers pass,

           D7              G             Em

    and as they're passing by, I could die,

                 C                             A

    'cause you're not here with me.

       C                         G                   C                    G

    Now the trees are bare, there's sadness in the air,

            - Am                       D       G        

    and          I'm as blue as I can be.          + CHORUS

 

(original moves up half a note to capo 4th here)  + D

 

                      G        Em           Am        

2. Night after lonely night, we meet in dreams,

                              C      - D

    as I run to your side,

             D7           G               Em

     you wait with open arms, open arms,

            C                           A

    that now are closed to me.

          C                     G              C                 G

    Through a veil of tears your vision disappears,

            - Am                        D       G        

    and           I'm as blue as I can be.

 

+ CHORUS (2x) …
