Baby Blue

Using the chords shown, capo at 2nd fret to match recording

G* chord xx0433
D* chord xx0775

INTRO:

D   G*   D*   G*

VERSE 1:
           D              F#m/C#
She looked so much like a lady
               G/B         A
But she was so much like a child
F#m                Bm
The devil when she held me close
   G              A
An angel when she smiled
D                   F#m/C#
She always held it deep inside
         G           A
But somehow I always knew
F#m                    Bm
She'd go away when the grass turned green
        G               D
And the sky turned Baby Blue


REFRAIN:
     D  F#m       G            A
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


REPEAT INTRO


VERSE 2:

She brought colors to my life
That my eyes had never touched
When she taught me how to care
I never cared so much
I try not to think of her
But I fall asleep and do
And drift off where the grass is green
And the sky is Baby Blue
