Selection chords: Sarah Harris

Intro:
C  Em  D  Am
 Mm, mm, mm

Chorus:
C Em     D                                   Am
I try to live in black and white, but Iʼm so blue
C   Em      D                           Am
Iʼd like to mean it when I say Iʼm over you
                     C     Em
But thatʼs still not true (Blue)
                 D        Am
And Iʼm still so blue, oh

Verse:
Am                    Em
I thought we were the same
           D                 Am
Birds of a feather, now Iʼm ashamed
             C                 Em
I told you a lie, désolé, mon amour
              D                          Am
Iʼm tryinʼ my best, donʼt know whatʼs in store
            C
Open up the door (Blue)
                  Em                  D
In the back of my mind, Iʼm still overseas
            Am                              C
A bird in a cage, thought you were made for me

Chorus:
  Em           D                                            Am                         C
I try (Iʼm not what) to live in black and white, but Iʼm so blue (But Iʼm not what you need)
    Em                 D                               Am
Iʼd like (Not what you need) to mean it when I say Iʼm over you
                     C        Em
But thatʼs still not true, true
                 D
And Iʼm still so blue (And itʼs not true)
    C                   Em
Iʼm true blue, true blue
             D Am
Iʼm true blue

C   Em       D    Am
(Blue) Mm, mm, mm

Verse:
              Cm
You were born bluer than a butterfly
                             G
Beautiful and so deprived of oxygen
Cm
Colder than your fatherʼs eyes
                                    G
He never learned to sympathize with anyone

Chorus:
        Cm
I donʼt blame you
            G
But I canʼt change you
      Cm
Donʼt hate you (Donʼt hate you)
             G
But we canʼt save you (But we canʼt save you)

Verse:
              Cm
You were born reachinʼ for your motherʼs hands
                                 G
Victim of your fatherʼs plans to rule the world
Cm
Too afraid to step outside
                          G
Paranoid and petrified of what youʼve heard

Bridge:
                       Cm
But they could say the same ʼbout me

I sleep ʼbout three hours each night
                                G
Means only twenty-one a week now, now
                    Cm
And I could say the same ʼbout you

Born blameless, grew up famous too
                      G
Just a baby born blue now, now

Chorus:
        Cm
I donʼt blame you (I donʼt blame you)
            G
But I canʼt change you
      Cm
Donʼt hate you
             G
But we canʼt save you (But we canʼt save you)


Bridge:

(But they could say the same ʼbout me)

(I sleep ʼbout three hours each night)
                                  Cm
(Means only twenty-one a week now)

(But they could say the same ʼbout me)

(I sleep ʼbout three hours each night)
                                  G
(Means only twenty-one a week now)

(But they could say the same ʼbout me)

(I sleep ʼbout three hours each night)
                                  Cm
(Means only twenty-one a week now)

(But they could say the same ʼbout me)

(I sleep ʼbout three hours each night)
                                  G
(Means only twenty-one a week now)
Cm
Ooh-ooh
          G
Itʼs over now
          Cm
Itʼs over now
          G
Itʼs over now
Cm         G
  (Ah-ah-ah, ahh)
