Intro: Am G C  (x2) 


Verse 

            Am                             G 
Your little brother never tells you but he loves you so 
              C  
You said your mother only smiled on her TV show 
             Am                            G 
You're only happy when your sorry head is filled with dope 
           C 
I hope you make it to the day you're 28 years old 


Pre-Chorus 

       Am                        G 
You're dripping like a saturated sunrise 
       C 
You're spilling like an overflowing sink 
       Am                                G 
You're ripped at every edge but you're a masterpiece 
               C 
And now you're tearing through the pages and the ink 


              Am 
Everything is blue 
               F 
His pills, his hands, his jeans 
            C 
And now I'm covered in the colors 
                        C 
Pulled apart at the seams 
         Am               F 
And it's blue 
         C 
And it's blue 

C             Am 
Everything is grey 
              F 
His hair, his smoke, his dreams 
             C 
And now he's so devoid of color 
                          C 
He don't know what it means 
         Am               F 
And he's blue 
         C                    C 
And he's blue 



Interlude: Am G C 


Verse 

           Am                             G 
You were a vision in the morning when the light came through 
            C 
I know I've only felt religion when I've lied with you 
                Am                          G 
You said you'll never be forgiven 'til your boys are too 
              C 
And I'm still waking every morning but it's not with you 


Pre-Chorus 

       Am                        G 
You're dripping like a saturated sunrise 
       C 
You're spilling like an overflowing sink 
       Am                                G 
You're ripped at every edge but you're a masterpiece 
               C 
And now you're tearing through the pages and the ink 


              Am 
Everything is blue 
               F 
His pills, his hands, his jeans 
            C 
And now I'm covered in the colors 
                        C 
Pulled apart at the seams 
         Am               F 
And it's blue 
         C 
And it's blue 

C             Am 
Everything is grey 
              F 
His hair, his smoke, his dreams 
             C 
And now he's so devoid of color 
                          C 
He don't know what it means 
         Am               F 
And it's blue 
         C 
And he's blue 



Bridge 

Am G C 

Am                        G 
 Art is not what I create 
             C 
What I create 

Is chaos 


              Am 
Everything is blue 
               F 
His pills, his hands, his jeans 
            C 
And now I'm covered in the colors 
                        C 
Pulled apart at the seams 
         Am               F 
And it's blue 
         C 
And it's blue 

C             Am 
Everything is grey 
              F 
His hair, his smoke, his dreams 
             C 
And now he's so devoid of color 
                          C 
He don't know what it means 
         Am               F 
But he's blue 
         C 
And he's blue
