Blue moon
G A D Bm
You saw me standing alone
G A D Bm
Without a dream in my heart
G A D Bm G A
Without a love of my own
 
Blue moon
You knew just what I was there for
You heard me saying a prayer for
Someone I really could care for
 
Em A D Bm
And then there suddenly appeared before me
Em A D Bm
The only one my arms will ever hold
Em A D Bm
I heard somebody whisper please adore me
E A
And when I looked to the moon it turned to gold
 
Blue moon
Now I'm no longer alone
Without a dream in my heart
Without a love of my own
 
And then there suddenly appeared before me
The only one my arms will ever hold
I heard somebody whisper please adore me
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
 
Blue moon
Now I'm no longer alone
Without a dream in my heart
Without a love of my own
