Black, Blue

Intro 2x: B F#/Bb G#m E

B   F#/Bb     G#m     E
   Nobody will call
    B          F#/Bb     G#m     
Not as long as I keep my phone 
      E
off the line
    B          F#/Bb     G#m     
Not as long as I keep my voice 
   E           B   F#/Bb    G#m   E
down inside of my mouth
    B            F#/Bb     G#m   
But it's getting harder to hide
   E

        B                 F#/Bb
And the brightness of the colors 
           G#m         E
makes it hard to describe
        B           F#/Bb   G#m  
And the voices that seem to come 
         E
from all sides
         B       F#/Bb    G#m   E
Makes it hard to decide

G#m      E       B       D       E
Black,   Blue,   Her,    You

Continues after the ad
B        F#/Bb     G#m    E
I know a woman who said
    B           F#/Bb    G#m     
'Oh if I could only just turn 
      E
back the clock
     B            F#/Bb        
When I was still scared and my 
G#m            E
hair was still dark
       B          F#/Bb    G#m   E
And my hands were clean
    B          F#/Bb        G#m  
But now all my choices are spent
    E

        B             F#/Bb    
And the men that I've known they 
        G#m         E
don't know what I meant
     B      F#/Bb    G#m          
And cupid's arrow is backwards and 
 E
bent
          B          F#/Bb    G#m
When it's flying for me
   E


G#m      E       B      D      
Black,   Blue,   Her,   You,   
G#m      E        B      D        E
White,   Green,   Him,   Me

B   F#/Bb      G#m    E
   Nobody will say
   B          F#/Bb  G#m        E
Oh what a fine young upstanding man
         B          F#/Bb       
With his ducks in a row and his 
G#m     E
50 year plan
   B             F#/Bb     G#m    E
Complete with an ending
    B            F#/Bb     G#m    E
But it's getting harder to see
        B            F#/Bb        
And the time between daylight 
  G#m       E
seems longer to me
        B       F#/Bb      G#m   
And the person I am and the 
       E
person I'll be
  B      F#/Bb   G#m   E
Refuse to meet

G#m      E       B      D      
Black,   Blue,   Her,   You,   
G#m      E        B      D        E
White,   Green,   Him,   Me
