[C]
Well to[C]night if you turn your radio on,
[C]and you hear a sad sad song
About [F]someone who lost everything they [C]had
It may [G]sound like me, but I’m a little bluer than [C]that.


[C]When you look out in the morning you might see
[C]Clouds rollin’ by like memories
And a [F]big ole sky above you lookin’ [C]back
You may [G]think of me
but I’m a little bluer than [C]that.


Where did we [F]go wrong I [G]wish I knew
It [C]haunts me all the [Am]time
Now [D]wherever I go, whatever I do
You’re [F]always on my [G]mind.


I can [C]picture you in her arms tonight
[C]And as for me it don’t feel right
To [F]let us fade like some old photo[C]graph
It may [G]work for you
But I’m a little bluer than [C]that.


Where did [F]we go wrong I [G]wish I knew
It [C]haunts me all the [Am]time
Now [D]wherever I go, whatever I do
You’re [F]always on my [G]mind.


So to[C]night if you turn your radio on
[C]and you hear a sad sad song
a[F]bout someone who lost everything they [C]had
It may [G]sound like me
but I’m a little bluer than [C]that
No [G]it ain’t me
coz I’m a little bluer than [F]that [G] [C]
