Blue Velvet

D9   D7   G  G/F#  Bm     Bm7  Bbm7  Am7
She wore blue     velvet

           D9     D7      G      Em7
Bluer than velvet was the night

C           Cm             D9   D7   Am7   G   Edim Am7  
Softer than satin was the light from the stars


D9  D7    G  G/F#  Bm     Bm7  Bbm7  Am7
She wore blue     velvet

           D9     D7        G      Em7
Bluer than velvet were her eyes

C           Cm              D9   D7  Am7 D7  Dm7   G7
Warmer than May her tender sighs -- love was ours



Bridge:

CM7                Cm7     Cm7-5  G9          G       G6    
Ours a love I held tightly,      feeling the rapture grow

CM7                   Cm7     Cm7-5
Like a flame burning brightly

Bm7          Gdim  Am7          D9  
But when she left, gone was the glow 


D7  G  G/F#  Bm     Bm7  Bbm7  Am7
Of blue     velvet,            

          D9             D7     G      Em7
But in my heart there'll always be

C             Cm         D9    D7   Am7  Dm7  G9
Precious and warm, a memory through the years

G   G9 CM7      Am7      Cm7    Cdim    D7   G   Edim  Am7  Cm7  G6
And I still can see blue velvet through my tears.
