Bm G A D/F# G A D/F# G ======================== [Intro] | Bm G A D/F# | G A D/F# G | (x4) [Verse 1]
Bm G A D/F# G A D/F# Oh, look at how she listens
G Bm G A D/F# G A D/F# She says nothing of what she thinks
G Bm G A D/F# G A D/F# She just goes stumbling through her memories,
G Bm G A D/F# G A D/F# Staring out on to Grey Street
G Bm G A D/F# G A D/F# But she thinks, "Hey,
G Bm G A D/F# G A D/F# How did I come to this?
G Bm G A D/F# G A D/F# I dream myself a thousand times around the world,
G Bm G A D/F# G A D/F# But I can't get out of this place." [Chorus 1]
Bm* A/C# Oh there's an emptiness inside her
D* G* And, she'll do anything to fill it in
Bm* A* But all the colors mix together
Bm G A D/F# G A D/F# To grey!
G Bm G A D/F# G A D/F# And it breaks her heart

[Verse 2]
G Bm G A D/F# G A D/F# How she wishes it was different
G Bm G A D/F# G A D/F# She prays to God most every night
G Bm G A D/F# G A D/F# And though she swears He doesn't listen
G Bm G A D/F# G A D/F# There's still a hope in her He might
G Bm G A D/F# G A D/F# She says, "I pray
G Bm G A D/F# G A D/F# But they fall on deaf ears,
G Bm G A D/F# G A D/F# Am I supposed to take it on myself?
G Bm G A D/F# G A D/F# G To get out of this place" (yeah) [Chorus 2]
Bm* A/C# Oh there's there's loneliness inside her
D* G* And she'd do anything to fill it in
Bm* A/C# And though it's red blood bleeding from her now
D* G* It feels like cold blue ice in her heart
Bm* A* When all the colors mix together
Bm G A D/F# G A D/F# to Grey!
G Bm G A D/F# G A D/F# And it breaks her heart [Verse 3]
G Bm G A D/F# G A D/F# There's a stranger speaking outside her door
G Bm G A D/F# G A D/F# Says take what you can from your dreams
G Bm G A D/F# G A D/F# Make them as real as anything
G Bm G A D/F# G A D/F# It'd take the work out of the courage
G Bm G A D/F# G A D/F# But she says, "Please
A D/F# G Bm G A D/F# G A D/F# There's a crazy man that's creeping outside my door,
G Bm G A D/F# G A D/F# I live on the corner of Grey Street
G Bm G A D/F# G A D/F# G and the end of the world!" [Chorus 3]
Bm* A/C# Oh there's an emptiness inside her
D* G* And she'd do anything to fill it in
Bm* A/C# And though it's red blood bleeding from her now
D* G* It's more like cold blue ice in her heart
Bm* A/C# She feels like kicking out all the windows
D* G* And setting fire to this life
Bm* A/C# She could change everything about her,
D* G* using colors bold and bright
Bm* A* But all the colors mix together
Bm G A D/F# G A D/F# to Grey!
G Bm G A D/F# G A D/F# And it breaks her heart
G Bm G A D/F# G A D/F# And it breaks her heart
G Bm G A D/F# G A D/F# It breaks her heart
G Bm G A D/F# G A D/F# G To Grrrr-eeeeee-yyyyyyyyyy--yyyyyyyyyyyy!!!
Bm G A D/F# G A D/F# G Yeaaahhhhhhh-hhhhhhhhhh-hhhhhhhhhhhh!!!
Bm G A D/F# G A D/F# G Yeah, yeah, yeah-ah! [Other]
