[00:00.00][Intro]
[00:08.07]Blue must be the color of the blues
[00:08.76][Verse 1]
[00:11.55]Up above me are the skies
[00:16.17]Like the twinkle in your eyes
[00:21.69]These things are the color  of a blue
[00:28.74][Verse 2]
[00:30.75]In the mail your letters came
[00:35.43]The ink and paper look  the same
[00:41.07]Blue must be the color  of the blues
[00:48.54][Bridge 1]
[00:49.98]Bluebirds sitting in the tree
[00:54.99]Seems to sympathize with me
[01:00.21]For he's not singin' like  he used to do
[01:06.57][Verse 3]
[01:09.33]The pretty waters in the sink
[01:14.22]Feel as cold as you left me
[01:19.08]Yes, blue must be the color of the blues
[01:23.07](Yes, blue must be the color of the blues)
[01:23.07][Verse 4]
[01:23.22]There's a rainbow overhead
[01:23.79]With more blue than gold and red
[01:24.66]Blue must be the color angels choose
[01:25.53][Verse 5]
[01:25.68]A blue dress you proudly wore
[01:26.25]When you left to return no more
[01:26.88]Blue must be the color of the blues
[01:27.57][Bridge  2]
[01:38.37]Blue days come and blue  days go
[01:42.99]How I feel nobody knows
[01:48.78]Life is mighty empty without you
[01:54.93][Verse 6]
[01:57.78]There's a blue note  in each song
[02:02.49]That I sing since you are gone
[02:07.56]Yes blue must be the color  of the blues
