Introdução: C Am Dm G7 C Am Dm G7 
 
G7     C    Am7  Dm7 
Blue moon 
            G7        C    Am7    Dm7 
You saw me standing alone 
           D7         C7M    Am7    D7  
Without a dream in my heart 
           F          C   Am7  Dm7 
Without a love of my own 
G7     C    Am7  Dm7 
Blue moon 
            G7        C    Am7    Dm7 
You knew just what I was there for 
           D7         C7M    Am7    D7  
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 
G7     C    Am7 Dm7 
Blue moon 
            G7        C    Am7  Dm7 
Now I'm no longer alone 
           D7         C7M    Am7  D7  
Without a dream in my heart 
           F       G7            C    
Without a love of my own
