Blue Moon piano leadsheet with chords

Once upon a time, before I took up smiling,

I hated the moonlight!

Shadows of the night that poets find beguiling seemed flat as the moonlight.

With no one to stay up for,

I went to sleep at ten.

Life was a bitter cup for the saddest of all men.

Blue moon, you saw me standing alone,

without a dream in my heart,

without a love of my own.

Blue moon, you knew just what I was there for,

you heard me saying a prayer for someone I really could care for.

And then there suddenly appeared before me the only one my arms will ever hold.

I heard somebody whisper, "Please adore me."

And when I looked, the moon had turned to gold!

Blue moon!

Now I'm no longer alone, without a dream in my heart,

without a love of my own.

Once upon a time, my heart was just an organ;

my life had no mission.

Now that I have you, to be as rich as Morgan is my one ambition.

Once I awoke at seven, hating the morning light.

Now I awake in Heaven and all the world all right.

Blue moon, you saw me standing alone,

without a dream in my heart,

without a love of my own.

Blue moon, you knew just what I was there for,

you heard me saying a prayer for someone I really could care for.

And then there suddenly appeared before me the only one my arms will ever hold.

I heard somebody whisper, "Please adore me."

And when I looked, the moon had turned to gold!

Blue moon!

Now I'm no longer alone, without a dream in my heart,

without a love of my own.
