Lady Day Lyrics

Her day was born in shades of blue,
M7
Her song was sad the words were true;
Her morning came too fast too soon,
M7
And died before the afternoon
M7
Poor la - dy day could use some love, some sunshine,
+7 M7
Lady day has too much rain
M7
Poor la - dy day could use some spring, some breezes,
+7 M7
Lady day has too much pain.
+7 M7
It's such a lonely face, it's such a cloudy sky,
So many shadows in her eye.
+7 M7
So many empty dreams, so many bitter times,
Just a handful of broken rhymes.
M7
Poor la - dy day could use a smile, some kindness,
+7 M7
Lady day has too much rain.
M7
Poor la - dy day could use some dreams, some flowers;
+7 M7
Lady day has too much pain.
+7 M7
Just too much to say, just to much to know,
Too little time to say, Hello.
+7 M7
And then the evening comes, and now she doesn't cry,
And it's too late to say, Good-bye.
