James Tommy - Out Of The Blue guitar tab

"Out Of The Blue"

(Ritchie Cordell - Bo Gentry)

[Notes: 1) OK, so this wasn't such a big hit but it's always been one of my

(and Tommy James' own) favorites. 2) You could substitute D13 for D7 to

cover the B in the high harmonies, but the guitar actually plays D7.]

Intro (really a verse without the first two lines):

F Fm

I was so downhearted baby

C D7

Till I met with you

Chorus:

You took me (took me) out of the blue

G7sus4 G7

You shook me (shook me) out of the blue

Verse 1:

Dm7 G7 C F

Out of the blue into your arms, oh I came

Dm7 G7 C C+

Out of the blue, leavin' the pain behind

F Fm

Just as everything was falling

C D7

You came into view

[repeat chorus]

Verse 2:

Out of the blue into a love so real, yeah

Out of the blue, how very strange it feels

Everything was so ungroovy

Till you pulled me through

[repeat chorus]

Bridge:

C F

/ / / / / / / /

You passed my way, I passed your name

For every little part of you
