Chords

[Intro] D G D G [Verse 1]
           D              F#m/C#
She looked so much like a lady

               G/B         A
But she was so much like a child

F#m              Bm
A devil when she held me close

   G              A
An angel when she smiled

D                   F#m/C#
She always held it deep inside

         G           A
But somehow I always knew

F#m                    Bm
She'd go away when the grass turned green

        G               D
And the sky turned baby blue
[Chorus]
     D  F#m       G            A
Baby blue was the color of her eyes

     F#m  Bm        G        A
Baby blue, like the Colorado skies

       Bm
Like a breath of Spring, she came and left

    D                  E
And I still don't know why

    F#m                   Bm           G             D
So, here's to you, and whoever holds my Baby Blue, tonight
[Instrumental] (D) G D G [Verse 2]
            D            F#m/C#
She brought colors to my life

        G/B             A
That my eyes had never touched

F#m                Bm
When she taught me how to care

  G              A
I never cared so much

D            F#m/C#
I try not to think of her

       G              A
But I fall asleep and do

    F#m                 Bm
And drift off where the grass is green

        G           D
And the sky is baby blue
[Chorus]
     D  F#m       G            A
Baby blue was the color of her eyes

     F#m  Bm        G        A
Baby blue, like the Colorado skies

       Bm
Like a breath of Spring, she came and left

    D                  E
And I still don't know why

    F#m                   Bm           G             D     Ab
So, here's to you, and whoever holds my Baby Blue, tonight
(Key change to Eb) [Chorus]
Bb   Eb  Gm       Ab           Bb
Baby blue was the color of her eyes

     Gm   Cm        Ab       Bb
Baby blue, like the Colorado skies

       Cm
Like a breath of Spring, she came and left

    Eb                 F
And I still don't know why

    Gm                    Cm           Ab            Eb
So, here's to you, and whoever holds my Baby Blue, tonight
[Outro]
     Eb  Gm       Ab           Bb
Baby blue was the color of her eyes

     Gm   Cm        Ab
Baby blue, like the Colorado skies

     Eb  Gm       Ab           Bb
Baby blue was the color of her eyes

     Gm   Cm        Ab
Baby blue, like the Colorado skies

     Eb  Gm       Ab           Bb
Baby blue was the color of her eyes

     Gm   Cm        Ab
Baby blue, like the Colorado
