[Verse 1]
D9 D7 G Bm Bm7-Bbm7-Am7
1.She wore blue velvet,
D9 D7 G Em7
Bluer than velvet was the night,
C Cm D9 D7 Am7 G Em-Am7-D
Softer than satin was the light from the stars.
D9 D7 G Bm Bm7-Bbm7-Am7
She wore blue velvet
D9 D7 G Em7 - Am7
Bluer than velvet were her eyes,
C Cm D9 D7 Am7 D7 Dm7 G7
Warmer than May her tender sighs..... love was ours.
[Chorus]
CM7 Cm7
Ours a love I held tightly,
G7 G G7
Feeling the rapture grow,
CM7 Cm7
Like a flame burning brightly,
Bm7 Gdim. Am7 D7
But when she left, gone was the glow...
[Verse 2]
D7 G Bm Bm7-Bbm7-Am7
2. ...Of blue velvet,
D7 G
But in my heart there'll always be,
C Cm D7 Am7 Dm7
Precious and warm, a memory, through the years,
G G7 CM7 Am7 Cm Cdim. D7 G
...And I still can see blue velvet...through my tears.
[Chorus]
D9 D7 G
(She wore blue...)
