Lyrics

(F7)She wore (Bb6)blue (Dm)velvet, (Cm7)bluer than (F7)velvet was the (Bbmaj9)night,

(Cm7)softer than satin was the light (F13)from (F7)the (Bbmaj9)stars.

(F7)She wore (Bb6)blue (Dm)velvet, (Cm7)bluer than (F7)velvet were her (Bbmaj9)eyes,

(Cm7)warmer than May her tender sighs;

(F13)love (F7)was (Fm7)ours.

(Ebmaj7)Ours, a love I held (Ebm7)tightly,

(Bb9)feeling the (Bb6)rapture (Bb)grow (Bb7)(Ebmaj7)like a flame burning (Ebm7)brightly.

(Dm7)But when she (Dbdim7)left, (Cm7)gone was the (F13)glow of (Bb6)blue (Dm)velvet,

(Cm7)but in my (F7)heart there'll always (Bbmaj9)be,

(Cm7)precious and warm, a memory (F)through the (Fm7)years,

(Bb9)and I (Ebmaj7)still can see blue (F7#5)velvet through my (Bb6)tears.

(F7)She wore (Bb6)blue (Dm)velvet, (Cm7)bluer than (F7)velvet was the (Bbmaj9)night,

(Cm7)softer than satin was the light (F13)from (F7)the (Bbmaj9)stars.

(F7)She wore (Bb6)blue (Dm)velvet, (Cm7)bluer than (F7)velvet were her (Bbmaj9)eyes,

(Cm7)warmer than May her tender sighs;

(F13)love (F7)was (Fm7)ours.

(Ebmaj7)Ours, a love I held (Ebm7)tightly,

(Bb9)feeling the (Bb6)rapture (Bb)grow (Bb7)(Ebmaj7)like a flame burning (Ebm7)brightly.

(Dm7)But when she (Dbdim7)left, (Cm7)gone was the (F13)glow of (Bb6)blue (Dm)velvet,

(Cm7)but in my (F7)heart there'll always (Bbmaj9)be,

(Cm7)precious and warm, a memory (F)through the (Fm7)years,

(Bb9)and I (Ebmaj7)still can see blue (F7#5)velvet through my (Bb6)tears.

(F7)She wore (Bb6)tears.
