Whether you are just a fan of old time songs, or adore the American Werewolf movie (like me!), this is a cracking tune, and great when played in a slow jazzy strum on the ukulele
Blue Moon
(lyrics provided strictly for educational purposes only)
[G7]Blue [C]moon, [Am7] [Dm7]
You saw me [G7]standing a[C]lone [Am7] [Dm7]
Without a [D7]dream in my [CM7]heart, [Am7] [D7]
Without a [F]love of my [C]own. [Am7] [Dm7]
Verse 2:
[G7]Blue [C]moon, [Am7] [Dm7]
You knew just [G7]what I was [C]there for, [Am7] [Dm7]
You heard me [D7]saying a [CM7]prayer for [Am7] [D7]
[F]Someone I [G]really could [C]care for. [F] [Fm] [C]
Bridge:
And then there [Dm7]suddenly ap[G7]peared be[C]fore me
The only [Dm7]one my heart could [G7]ever [C]hold;
I heard some[Fm7]body whisper, "[Bb7]Please a[Eb]dore me."
And when I [G]looked, the moon had [D7]turned to [G]gold. [D7] [G7]
Verse 3:
[G7]Blue [C]moon, [Am7] [Dm7]
Now I'm no [G7]longer a[C]lone [Am7] [Dm7]
Without a [D7]dream in my [CM7]heart, [Am7] [D7]
Without a [F]love of my [C]own. [Am7] [Dm7]
This is one of my favorite songs. I bought a uke a few years ago, but haven't put a lot of time into playing it but I am determined to make more time... this is a song that has been rolling around in my head a lot. Thanks for Posting it!! Peace, Jeanne

ReplyDeleteIts an old song but its still a good one - sounds really good on the Uke My Uke group play it and it sounds great
ReplyDeleteI've been playing the uke since I was 16, I'm 86 now and had never done Blue Moon until now. It sounds great. Thanks heaps, I love it.
