[Verse]
Em
You stared a while,
Bm
And said to me
Cmaj7
Give me a smile,
G G/F# Em
and aren’t you having fun?
Em
Stood in my path,
Bm
Down in the street
Cmaj7
I wouldn’t laugh,
G G/F# Em
And you look so stunned
[Pre-Chorus]
Cmaj7 G
I think you,
Cmaj7 G Cmaj7 G Cmaj7 G
Had no clue
[Chorus]
Em F# B
I will be blue
D G Em
Like a hermit in it’s shell
D G Em
Like Jesus Christ on the hill
F# B A
I’ll be blue, I’ll be blue

[VERSE 2]
Em
We had a drink,
Bm
I sang some songs
Cmaj7
You had to think,
G G/F# Em
I didn’t hold my place at all
Em
Please pardon me,
Bm
For these my wrongs
Cmaj7
And I will leave
G G/F# Em
But I wont put your party face on
[PRE-CHORUS]
Cmaj7 G Cmaj7 G
I’ll be blue
Cmaj7 G Cmaj7 G
I’----ll will be blue
