Blue gar - den - ia, now I'm alone with you
DM7 B7F#mD9Bm7-5 A7D
And I am also blue -- she has tossed us aside.
A A7/6 Em7 Cdim A7(V) A7/6 F#m DM7 B7
And like you, gar - den - ia, once I was near her heart
DM7 B7F#mEm7A7G/BA7C#7
After the teardrops start, where are tear - drops to hide?
Bridge:

I lived for an hour -- what more can I tell?

Love bloomed like a flow - er , then the petals fell.
Em7 Cdim A7(V) A7/6 DM7 F#m E7/9
Blue gar - den - ia, thrown to a passing breeze
GdimD9F#mBmBm7/Em7 EdimD
But pressed in my book of mem - or - ries.
