CORNFLOWER BLUE



         (Capo: 2nd fret)

 D           G
Cornflower blue
G                        D
blooming in the morning sun
                    A
Tiny flowers that grew

 D
from when our love had just begun
D              G
Long ago we planted
                    D
each dry and dusty row
D                Em
How long it has taken
          A                G
for the seeds of love to grow.
             D
Cornflower blue.


Cornflower blue
like the faded shirt you wore
Standing in the shadows
when I opened up the door.
The smile in your eyes
when you said hello
Held me tenderly
and would not let me go.
Cornflower blue.

Cornflower blue
deeper than the evening sky
Peaceful as a river
bluer than goodbye
Blue like the diamond
when the light shines true
If love came in colors
I'd choose this one for you
Cornflower blue.
