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