G7     C    Am7  Dm7
Blue moon, 

            G7        C    Am7    Dm7
You saw me standing alone

           D7         CM7    Am7    D7 
Without a dream in my heart,

           F          C   Am7  Dm7
Without a love of my own.


Blue moon,
You knew just what I was there for,
You heard me saying a prayer for

F          G            C        F - Fm     C
Someone I really could care for.


Bridge:

               Dm7         G7      C
And then there suddenly appeared before me

         Dm7                G7    C
The only one my heart could ever hold;

        Fm7                Bb7     Eb
I heard somebody whisper, "Please adore me."

             G                    D7        G   D7  G7
And when I looked, the moon had turned to gold.


Blue moon,
Now I'm no longer alone
Without a dream in my heart,
Without a love of my own.
