    C                                               Dm

1.     If someone were to read my history,

G                                                 C

    they would know why it's no mystery.

C                  C7           - F

    She's not ordinary,         it's her love I carry,

G                                        C

    I was born, born to be blue.

 

     C                                         Dm

2.      I'm the fool who sees tomorrow,

G                                                   C

    but all that time has just been borrowed.

C                  C7               - F

    She's the only reason        that I keep believin',

G                                        C

    I was born, born to be blue.

 

E                                       Am

    For everybody, there's someone just for them,

E                                     Am                     G            G7

    and like anybody you lose one every now and then.

3.       I have found that I'm still fallin',

G                                         C

    maybe I have found my callin'.

C                  C7                - F

    She's the only reason          that I keep believin',

G                                        C

    I was born, born to be blue.

C                  C7          - F

    She's not ordinary,         it's her love I carry,

G                                        C    - G                                         C

    I was born, born to be blue.         I was born, born to be blue.
