Maybe I'm wrong, maybe I'm right

Maybe I just don't know 
C9 
Will I ever fall in love and never have to worry 
         A       F9   A 
That I'm fallin' all alone 
F9               E9                    A 
Maybe it's true, I was just born to be blue 
F9               E9                    A 
Maybe it's true, I was just born to be blue 
 
A 
They say everybody's got a someone, a sweet somebody to love

It might be fate or destiny, maybe written in the stars above 
D 
But I can't help but wonder after all that I've been through 
A             
Maybe my baby's nowhere to be found and I was just born to be blue 
     D 
Oooh-hoo 
     E 
Oooh-hoo 
 
 
Was I born to be unhappy, just to live on heartache street 
Was I born to go to bed each night and cry myself to sleep 
Can somebody out there help me give me some kind of clue 
Tell me I'm wrong, tell me I'm right, but, don't tell me I was born to be blue 
Oooh-hoo 
Oooh-hoo 
 
 
They say nobody dies from a heartache, you can't drown in your own tears 
But who wants to live in this world alone where minutes turn into years 
So I'd rather go down believin' suffer a heartache or two 
Tell me I'm wrong, tell me I'm right but, don't tell me I was born to be blue 
Oooh-hoo 
Oooh-hoo 
 
 
Was I born to be blue, born just to cry 
Born to be alone 'til the day I die 
Somebody tell me was I born to be loved, born to be kissed 
Born to find the one to show me what I missed 
Was I born to be blue, born just to cry 
Born to be alone 'til the day I die 
Tell me, Mama was I born to be loved, born to be kissed 
Born to find the one to show me what I missed
