D7         G7
When I get old and find the time
             C7
I'll paint a picture about my life
              G7       Em7                Am7      D7
I'll paint it blue for you, I'll paint it blue for you
            G7
You gave me love, a love so strong
              C7                    C#dim7
I treated you so bad, I treated you wrong
                G7 Em7           A7       C7       G7   D#7 D7 N.C.
Now I want to show,   I feel so low, I'm blue for you

When I was younger I tried so hard
To find a good woman and give her my love
I found a woman sweet as can be, I found a woman for me
I didn't know I had the world
I was still looking for ways to your love
Now that I know, I feel so low, I'm blue for you

G7           C7
Cheatin' and lyin', I played around
           G7
Livin' and dyin', you stood your ground
             C7
Cheatin' and lyin', you knew so well
                  A7                     D7
There's no good denying, you know me too well

When I'm alone I realise
Your eyes were smilin' but deep inside
I saw the blue in you, everything blue for you
You gave me love, a love so strong
I treated you so bad, I treated you wrong
Now I want to show, I feel so low, I'm blue for you
Feel so low, I'm blue for you
I feel so low I'm blue for you
