Evening blue    (video)

 

    Am - D7 - Am - D7

 

   Am                                    D7

1.     Sitting all alone by the fireside,

G                                                      E

    listen to the wind in the chimney top.

E                                                         Am

    Haven't slept for days, and I'm still wide eyed,

C7                                                        G

    try not to think, but my mind won't stop.

C7                                                         G

    Evening shadows making my heart sing out,

                   G               - G7   C

    with the setting sun,          turning leaves to brown.

 

                G                                    F

If I had a lover, whose heart was true,

                        C                               G

I wouldn't be alone in this evening blue.           +  Am - D7 - Am - D7

 

   Am                                                 D7

2.     Everybody's looking for something in life,

G                                                                 E

    not everyone finds what they're looking for.

E                                                             Am

    Everybody wants a little happiness in life,

C7                                              G

    but everyone can open the door.

C7                                                        G

    Morning wakens, making my heart sing out,

                    G                     - G7   C

    now that summer's here,       changing fears and doubts.
