Color Of The Blues
recorded by George Jones

C
Up above me are the skies
         F               C
Like the twinkle in your eyes
                                  G7
There things are the color of the blues
       C
In the mail your letter came
                  F          C
The ink and paper looked the same
                 G7           C
Blue must be the color of the blues
 
     F
Blue birds singing in the trees
         C
Seems to sympathize with me
                                    G7
For he's not singing like he use to do
    C
The pretty water in the sea
                 F        C
Still as cold as you left me
                     G7           C
Yes blue must be the color of the blues
 
 
There's a rainbow over head
          F                  C
With more blue than gold and red
                              G7
Blue must be the color angels choose
        C
And the blue dress you proudly wore
                 F         C
When you left to return no more
                 G7           C
Blue must be the color of the blues
 
     F
Blue days come and blue days go
      C
How I feel nobody knows
                             G7
Life is pretty empty without you
        C
There's a blue note in each song
                  F       C
That I sing since you are gone
                     G7           C
Yes blue must be the color of the blues
