The Meaning Of The Blues(Ukulele chords)

	        

Am             F       D9    E7/9- 
Blue was just the color of the sea  
Am  F     Bm5-/7    E7 
Til my lover left me 
Am          F          D9    E7/9- 
Blue was just a bluebird in a tree  
Gm7 Dm7     Am      E7 
Til he said 'Forget me.' 
C       G        F      G 
Blue always made me think of summer 
C           Am7           Bm5-/7  E7 
Cloudless summer skies so fresh and warm 
 Am          F             Am7    F 
But now the blue I see is more like winter 
Dm     A7       F    Bm5-/7    E 
Winter skies with clouds about to storm 
Am            F        D9    E7/9- 
Blue was just the color of his eyes 
Am  F        Bm5-/7      E7 
Til he said 'Goodbye, love.' 
Am         F            D9      E7/9- 
Blue was just a ribbon for first prize 
Gm7 Dm7             Am     E7 
Til he said, 'Don't cry, love.' 
  F       Dm7  Bm5-/7      G7 
And blues were only torch songs 
F         Dm7        Bbm9 
Fashioned for impulsive ingénues 
    Am     F     D9   E7/9- 
But now I know, too well I know 
  F    Dm7      Bm5-/7   E7    Am 
Too well I know the meaning of the blues
