Born to be blue

Some folks were meant to live in

clover,
     G        Bb9          Am7   D7
But they are such a chosen few;
      G            Cm     
And clover, being green, is 
  G              G6   Cm7/5-
something I've never seen,
       G     Cm7         D9     D7
'Cause I was born to be blue.

When there's a yellow moon above me,
     G        Bb9

But moon beams, being gold, are 
   G       G6        Cm7/5-
something I can't behold,

When I met you, the world was 
          D7
bright and sunny;
Am7       D9       D7       G
When you left, the curtain fell.
E7          A7               E7 
I want to laugh, but nothing 
        A7
strikes me funny;
A7               Am7       D9 Am7 D7
Now my world's a faded pastel.

Well, I guess I'm luck - i - er 
      G
than some folks --
 G              Bb9             
I've known the thrill of loving 
Am7   D7
you,
    G              Cm       G    
And that alone is more than I was
   G6    Cm7/5-
 created for
       G     Am7     D7  G
'Cause I was born to be blue.
