Intro: D5   A5 G5   B5   G5 A5     B5   G5 A5     D5   A5 G5

    D5                           A5       G5
You can't write a novel from a briefcase
    B5                       G5     A5 
You can write a poem from a trench 
    B5                      G5      A5
You can dream a dream from A___ to B
        D5                          A5    G5 
But you can't catch a bus from a bench 

You don't back a horse called Striding Snail 
You don't name your boat Titanic II 
So why when I see your happy smiling face 
Do I always end up singing Little Blue 
 
       D5                G5
Little Blue, how do you do
     E5               
Your smile looks like heaven
                     A5              D5
but your eyes hold a storm about to brew
       G5   
Little Blue
    E5                          
How can a flower so pretty
                      A5    
be so laden down with dew 
         D5
Little Blue 

    Bb5               A5
How can a flower so beautiful
      Bb5              A5
be so laden down with dew
        D5 
Little Blue 

You can't build a brewery on a cemetery 
You can build a pub on a church 
And people fall quicker than buildings do 
You have to decide what comes first 

You don't call a plane the Flying Roman 
'Cause the Romans always walked and never flew 
So why when I see your happy smiling face 
Do I always end up singing Little Blue 

Little Blue, how do you do 
Your smile looks like heaven 
but your eyes hold a storm about to brew 
Little Blue 
How can a flower so pretty 
be so laden down with dew 
Little Blue 

A5  G5  B5  G5  A5

       D5                           A5       G5
Well Bukowski wrote a story from a barstool 
    B5                      G5    A5
And Keats from the top of a hill
       B5               G5            A5
So I'm going to save my special song for you 
       D5                               A5
From a grave where it's quiet and it's chill 

                 Bb5               A5
'Cause there's a queue of clouds assembled
          Bb5            A5
On the horizon of your smile 
     Bb5                    A5
When most think that you're holding back 
  G5                   A5
I know you're holding bile 

Little Blue, how do you do 
Your smile looks like heaven 
but your eyes hold a storm about to brew 
Little Blue 
How can a flower so pretty 
be so laden down with dew 
Little Blue 

How can a flower so beautiful
be so laden down with dew 
Little Blue
