[E] [A]
[E] [B] [C#m] [A]
[E] They met up [A] on the blue moon and [E] they parted [F#m] on a cloudy day
They [E] [G#m] were so in [A] love and out of school
[D] But [A] he was going
[B] so far far [F#m] away
[B] She [E] said I be [B] true to [A] you
[E] Even [B] though you [A] don't want me to
[E] I'll be [B] blue [A] for you
[E] Even [B] though you've asked [A] me not to
Well [E] the years drifted by [B] them [A] as we all know they can
[E] He found [G#m] other women, but [A] she refused other men
[E] But [B] as fate would have it [A]
they met again
[D] She was on [A] a downhill slide.
[B] He would just slide
As [E] he looked into [B] her eyes at [A] night he never realized
[E] the only real [B] love in his [A] life Passing by
[E] When [B] he turned and left [A] her there his words
Goodbye, [D] he heard her [A] calling out to him [B] and as he walked she cried
[E] [B] I've been true [A] to you
[E] Seemed [B] like speaking to me is [A] the least that you could do [E] and I've [B] been blue [A] for you
[E] Even [B] though you've asked [A] me not to
She [E] had been drinking way too [G#m] hard [F#m] one night.
She had been drinking way [A] too long
[E] Alone and pale in [G#m] a cheap hotel.
[F#m] She died there in the dawn
[E] Kneeling [G#m] by her grave [B] oh so [A] late and oh so wrong
[D] He longed to hold her [A] close again
[B] Crying on and [F#m] [B] on [E] he cried
[B] [A] After [E]
[B] all that I [A] have put you through
[E]
I'll [B] be blue [A] for you
[E]
Though you [B] never [A] even asked me to
