The Fleetwoods 1959 (DeWayne Blackwell)
Our guardian star lost all his glow
The day that I lost you
He lost all his glitter the day you said, no
And his silver turned to blue
Like him, I am doubtful that your love is true
But if you decide to call on me
[A]Ask for [Em]Mr. [D]Blue
I'm Mr. [F#m]Blue [G](wah-a-wah-ooh)
When you [A]say you [D]love me (ah, [F#m]Mr. [G]Blue)
Then [Em]prove it by [F#m]going out [Bm]on the sly
[Em]Proving your [A]love isn't [F#m]true[Em]
Call me [A7]Mr. [D][Em]Blue[A]
[D]I'm Mr. [F#m]Blue [G](wah-a-wah-ooh)
When you [A]say you're [D]sorry (ah, [F#m]Mr. [G]Blue)
Then [Em]turn around, [F#m]heading for the [Bm]lights of town
[Em]Hurting me [A]through and [F#m]through[Em]
Call me [A7]Mr. [D]Blue
[A]I stay at [G]home at [D]night [G](I stay at [D]home)
[A]Right by the [G]phone at [D]night (right by the [G]phone)
But [Bm]you won't [F#m]call
And [Bm]I-I won't [E7]hu-urt my [A]pride [A7](call me [F#m]Mr.)[G]
[D]I won't tell [F#m]you [G](wah-a-wah-ooh)
Why you [A]paint the [D]town (ah, [F#m]Mr. [G]Blue)
A [Em]bright red, to turn it [F#m]upside [Bm]down
[Em]I'm painting it [F#m]too[Em]
But I'm [A7]painting it [D]blue[Em]
Call me [A7]Mr. [D]Blue [F#m][G](wah-a-wah-ooh)
Call [A7]me Mr. [D]Blue
