[Intro]
D G D5 G
[Verse 1]
D F#m G A
She looked so much like a lady, but she was so much like a child.
F#m Bm G A
A devil when she held me close, an angel when she smiled.
D F#m G A
She always held it deep inside, but somehow I always knew
F#m Bm G D
She'd go away when the grass turned green and the sky turned baby blue.
[Chorus]
D F#m G A
And baby blue----was the color of her eyes.
F#m Bm G A
Baby blue----like the Colorado skies.
Bm
Like a breath of spring, she came and left,
D E
And I still don't know why,
F#m Bm G D
So, here's to you and whoever holds my baby blue tonight.
[Verse 2]
D F#m G A
She brought colors to my life that my eyes had never touched.
F#m Bm G A
And when she taught me how to care, I never cared so much.
D F#m G A
I try not to think of her, but I fall asleep and do,
F#m Bm G D
And drift off where the grass is green and the sky is baby blue.
[Chorus]
D F#m G A
And baby blue----was the color of her eyes.
F#m Bm G A
Baby blue----like the Colorado skies.
Bm
Like a breath of spring, she came and left,
D E
And I still don't know why,
F#m Bm G D
So, here's to you and whoever holds my baby blue tonight.
[Chorus]
(key change)
Eb Gm Ab Bb
And baby blue----was the color of her eyes.
Gm Cm Ab Bb
Baby blue----like the Colorado skies.
Cm
Like a breath of spring, she came and left,
Eb F#
And I still don't know why,
Gm Cm Ab Eb
So, here's to you and whoever holds my baby blue tonight.
Capo: 2nd Fret
D5 XX0235
F#m XX4222
There are a few parts of the song where the F#m should be
played with the A on the 1st string.
Keep in mind this is not relative to the Capo on the second Fret.
