INTRO: E A E B E Dbm A E

#1.
     Abm7       A         Dbm            E          
They met upon a blue moon.......and they parted 
     Dbm        Gbm A
on a cloudy day.
E               Ebm      Dbm           D
They were so in love and out of school..
           A        B         Gbm
but he was goin' so far, far away.

CHORUS:
B   E             B       D   A   E    B
She said, I'll be true to you.....even though 
          A
you don't want me to.
    E       B        A    E    B
And I'll be blue for you, even though you've 
         A
asked me not to.

#2.
E                        Ebm B           A
Well, the year's drifted by  them, as we all 

know they can.
E              Abm7       B                 A
He found other women, but she refused other men.
E      Ebm        Abm7          A
But as fate would have it, they met again..
D            A                B
she was on a down-hill slide, he was just slidin' in.

#3.
      E               B                   A
As he looked into her eyes that night, he never 
              E              B               A
realized..the only real love in his life was passin' by.
        E          B               A
When he turned and left her there, his words, goodbye.
   D                 A               B
He heard her calling out to him, and as he walked, 

she cried..

CHORUS:
E         B       A    E          B
I've been true to you..seems like speakin' to me is 
    A
the least that you could do.
    E         B        A    E    B
And I've been blue for you, even though you've asked me 
A
not to.

#4.
           E
She'd been drinkin' way too hard one night, she'd been 
         Dbm
drinkin' way too long.
A         E         B            Dbm      Db
Alone and pale in a cheap hotel, she died there in the dawn.
E                      D      Dbm       A
Kneelin' by the grave, oh, so late, and oh, so wrong.
   D                  A            B                Gbm B
He longed to hold her close again, cryin' on and on.

OUTRO:
E                 B       A    E     B               A
He cried, I'll be true to you..after all that I have put 

you through.
    E       B        A    E          B          A           
And I'll be blue for you, though you never even asked me to.

....E....
