Patty Loveless – Color Of The Blues (Guitar)

G
Up above me are the skies

                 C       G
Like the twinkle in your eyes

C                    G            D
These things are the color of the blues

       G
In the mail your letter came

                  C          G
The ink and paper looked the same

C                G      D     G
Blue must be the color of the blues

C
Blue bird sitting in the tree

         G
Seems to sympathize with me

    C                G               D
For he's not singing like he used to do

           G
The pretty waters in the sea

             C           G
Feel as cold as when you left me

    C                G      D     G
Yes blue must be the color of the blues

          A
There's a rainbow over head

                    D       A
With more blue than gold or red

D                A            E
Blue must be the color angels choose

        A
And the blue look that you wore

                 D         A         
When you left to return no more

D                A     E      A
Blue must be the color of the blues

          D
Blue days come and blue days go

      A
How I feel nobody knows

D              A             E
Life is mighty empty without you

          A
There's a blue note in each song

                  D            A
That I sing since you've been gone

D                A      E     A
Blue must be the color of the blues

D                     A      E     A
Yes, blue must be the color of the blues
