Noth-ing seems cen-tre no ap-p’tite

 5     -6   -7  7
can't sleep at night.

-5 -6   -7   7     
No hope in sight.  

 6   -6  5  6 6 -6  6-6    -6   5
What did I do to be a-lone and blue

 5    -6     -7    7    
Since you've been gone, 

-5   -6  -7   7  5  -6   -7  7
life has no dawn I need you so.

-5  -6  -7   7   
Why did you go?  

  6  -6  5 6  6  6  -6 6   8  -8
What did I do to be a-lone and blue.

  7   -6    7 -6    
Since your good-bye, 

 7     -6   6   5  6    7   -6    7  -6
life's all out of key blue-birds fly by

   7    7   -8    8  8    8  8 -8
they won't sing for me, Oh, Lor-dy

 5   -6   -7   7   -5     -6    -7  7    
You took the glow that thrilled me so  

 5   -6  -7   7
I'd like to know

-5   -6  -7  7   
Why did you go  

 6   -6  5 6  6 -6  6   5   8   7
What did I do to be a-lone and blue
