[intro]
[verse] Am, C, F(without barre)
I just stare at this old black suit and from the corner of my eye, I just see as the time goes blazing by, and then I see this old moth and wait for it to die.
Continue with Am and Am7 two beats each. repeat 4 times.
Then the verse continues: Am, C, F(without barre)
Times seems to pass on by more than often, and there's a sign on the door saying: turn around again.
The flowers keep blooming and then they die, in the gloom I feel blue.
Chorus: Am, G (barre), F (barre), C
Oh I feels so blue and I drop to the floor, then I scream my name and feel no more.
Only thing I feel inside of me is blue oh it feels so cold~.
Maybe there is a place i could be where the cold ignites and I could feel free. Just over the mountain and under the bridge, I look right there when I wanna feel the blix.
Continue with Am and C two beats each. 4 times and then change to A7 and Dm same beats and same time.
[verse] Am, C, F(without barre)
I see your face in the full house of Ace. The only one whose not wearing braids.
I notice that my eyes are drifting to the skies as I think of a night I would only share with you.
I drink down my beer and take a step, throw the empty can onto my left. We change some words and then I caress your hair in the sleepless night, where we both moan and hold on tight.
Because reality is drifting into our dreams and dreams manifest into fantasies at best.
Growling for more I try to hold on tight but you push me aside and run into the night, I stay~ behind. I~ stay~ behind.
[Chorus]
[verse]
Next day I wake up holding my pillow, I push it aside and go cry at the willow tree.
I ride around town feeling empty trying to bury the sorrow in the sounds of talking.
I color my hair in shades of yellow, I go into a bar with women and order a drink.
He asks "shaken or stirred,". I answer, "What the crap, just gimme a beer, and I'll pay you, is that clear?"
I ask one of the dancers to come over here, she comes and oh my dear. It is her the girl from last night.
We say no words, she just turns away, but I grab her hand. "Why'd you go and left me alone?"
She said "We shared a moment that last forever, But I'm a taken woman and we can't be together."
With that she ran crying away. Yet again leaving me in the rain.
Ending: Am, Am7, Am, Am7, C, Cadd9, C, Cadd9, F, Fadd9. F, Fadd9. (both F's without barre) two beats each. < play this once through before you add singing to it.
We've got to hold on on what we have, cos it could just flow on by and it won't leave us untact.
Don't blame it on what we have, but what we've become. Don't cry over things you've never had. ANd pray for every day to better than that, 'cos life is a circus and that's a fact.
Play through twice before continuing singing.
Death lurks in every corner and leaves me dead, don't cry over that you little brat. My soul is gone it's long dead. I left it there with my childlike self and it ain't growing back.
Just keep playing louder until you feel it's enough then let it settle down and end it with a C.
