[Strophe]
E           A     F#m7        B7 
If you wear red tonight 
  E             A      D6      B7 
Remember what I said tonight 
    C#m                       A 
For red is the colour that my baby wore 
  D                   C#m 
And what's more, it's true 
 E 
Yes it is
[Strophe]
E                A           F#m7        B7 
Scarlet were the clothes she wore 
E         A         D6      B7 
Everybody knows I'm sure 
C#m                       A 
I would remember all the things we planned 
D                C#m 
Understand, it's true 
  E 
Yes it is, it's true  
 
Yes it is
[Pre-Refrain]
Bm         E7         A         F#m 
I could be happy with you by my side 
Bm            E7            C#m 
If I could forget her, but it's my pride 
           E 
Yes it is, yes it is 
           F#7       B7 
Oh, yes it is,       yeah
[Refrain]
E            A        F#m7        B7 
Please don't wear red tonight 
E              A      D6      B7 
This is what I said tonight 
C#m                             A 
For red is the colour that will make me blue 
    D                 C#m 
In spite of you, it's true 
   E7 
Yes it is, it's true  
 
Yes it is
[Pre-Refrain]
Bm         E7         A         F#m 
I could be happy with you by my side 
Bm            E7            C#m 
If I could forget her, but it's my pride 
           E 
Yes it is, yes it is 
           F#7       B7 
Oh, yes it is,       yeah

This is what I said tonight 
C#m                             A 
For red is the colour that will make me blue 
    D                 C#m 
In spite of you, it's true 
E               G#7 
Yes it is, it's true 
A               E 
Yes it is, it's true
