Born To Be Blue(Chords)

	        
G               Bb9     Cm5-/7      G 
Some folks were meant to live in clover 
     G        Bb9          Am7   D7 
But they are such a chosen few  
      G            Cm       G              G6   Cm5-/7 
And clover, being green, is something I've never seen 
       G     Cm7         D9     D7 
'Cause I was born to be blue 
      G         Bb9   Cm5-/7   G 
When there's a yellow moon above me 
     G        Bb9                  Am7   D7 
They say that moon beams I should view 
     G                Cm         G       G6        Cm5-/7 
But moon beams, being gold, are something I can't behold 
       G     Am7     D7   G 
'Cause I was born to be blue 
 
Bridge:  
Am7        D7       Am7                   D7 
When I met you, the world was bright and sunny  
Am7       D9       D7       G 
When you left, the curtain fell 
E7          A7               E7         A7 
I want to laugh, but nothing strikes me funny 
A7               Am7       D9 Am7 D7 
Now my world's a faded pastel.  
         G         Bb9     Cm5-/7    G 
Well, I guess I'm luckier   than some folks   
G              Bb9             Am7   D7 
I've known the thrill of loving you  
    G              Cm       G       G6    Cm5-/7 
And that alone is more than I was created for  
       G     Am7     D7  G 
'Cause I was born to be blue
