Verse 1
[C7] [Fm7] [Am7] [D7] [Gm7]
Am I blue? Am I blue?
[C7] [F7]
Ain't these tears
[D7] [G7] [C7] [F6] [D7] [Gm7]
In my eyes tell-in' you?
Chorus 1
[C7] [Fm7] [Am7] [D7] [Gm7]
Am I blue? You'll be too,
[C7] [F7] [D7] [G7]
If each plan with you man
[C7] [F6]
Done fell through.
Bridge
[E7] [Am7] [Bm7b5]
Was a time I was his only one,
[E7] [Bm7b5] [E7]
But now I'm the sad
[Am7] [D7] [Gm7]
And lonely one, "Lawdy,"
Verse 2
[C7] [Fm7] [Am7] [D7] [Gm7]
Was I gay? 'til today,
[C7] [F7] [D7] [G7]
Now he's gone and we're through,
[C7] [F6]
Am I blue?
