Blue Moon of Kentucky

by Patsy Cline

C                             F

Blue moon of Kentucky keep on shining

      C                                  G7

Shine on the one that's gone and left me blue

            C                        F

I said blue moon of Kentucky keep on shining

      C                 G7               C    C7

Shine on the one that's gone and left me blue

       F                      C

It was on one moonlight night stars shining bright

F               C             G7

Whisper on high love said goodbye

     C                        F

Blue moon of Kentucky keep on shining

C               G7                       C

Shine on the one that's gone and left me blue
