[Notes: 1) OK, so this wasn't such a big hit but it's always been one of my
(and Tommy James' own) favorites.  2) You could substitute D13 for D7 to
cover the B in the high harmonies, but the guitar actually plays D7.]


Intro (really a verse without the first two lines):

      F5             F5
      I was so downhearted baby
         C5              D5
      Till I met with you

Chorus:

          G5            G5
      You took me (took me) out of the blue
          G5              G5
      You shook me (shook me) out of the blue

Verse 1:

      D5         G5             C5       F5
      Out of the blue into your arms, oh I came
      D5         G5                C5      C+
      Out of the blue, leavin' the pain behind
       F5            F5
      Just as everything was falling
       C5             D5
      You came into view

[repeat chorus]

Verse 2:

      Out of the blue into a love so real, yeah
      Out of the blue, how very strange it feels
      Everything was so ungroovy
      Till you pulled me through

[repeat chorus]

Bridge:

      C5        F5
      / / / /  / / / /

      C5             F5                   C5
      You passed my way, I passed your name
                      F5               C5
      And since that day I'm not the same
                 D5
      I felt so hard for you
                      G5   G5
      For every little part of you

Verse 3:

      Out of the blue into your arms, oh I came
      Out of the blue, into your love just in time
      Everything was so ungroovy
      Till you pulled me through

[repeat chorus]

Coda (repeat to fade):

      D5         G5             C5                  C+
      Out of the blue, baby you took me out of the blue
