Blue Velvet
Bobby Vinton
Intro: Play first verse
She wore [G] Blue [Bm7] Velvet [Bm7] [Bbm7] [Am]
Bluer than [D7^2] velvet was the [G] night
[E7] [Am] Softer than satin was the [D7] light
From the [G] stars [E7] [Am]
[D7] She wore [G] blue [Bm7] velvet [Bm7] [Bbm7] [Am]
Bluer than [D7^2] velvet were her [G] eyes [E7]
[Am] Warmer than May her tender [D7] sighs
Love was [Dm7] ours [G7]
[Cmaj7] Ours a love I held [Cm7] tightly
[Bm7] Feeling the [Em7] rapture [G7] grow
[Cmaj7] Like a flame burning [Cm7] brightly
[Bm7] But when she [A#dim] left [Am] gone was the [D7] glow of
[G] Blue [Bm7] Velvet [Bm7] [Bbm7] [Am]
But in my [D7^2] heart there'll always [G] be [E7]
[Am] Precious and warm a memo[D7^2] ry through the [Dm7] years [G7]
And I [Cmaj7] still can see Blue [D7^2] Velvet through my [G6] tears
