Dm
Iʼm gonna tell my eyes not to see no colors,
C
Iʼm gonna tell my ears not to take no lovers,
Bb
Gonna keep my head underneath the covers,
A
keep my eyes on you, I donʼt need no others.
Dm
Throw away all my old letters,
C
Gonna sit in the kitchen and trim my feathers,
Bb
I got a picture of you to replace the sky,
A
If I lose you in the crowd I sit down and cry.
DmCBbADm
I got a tin foil hat to keep me from dreaming,
Bb
Gonna sip my wine and stare at the ceiling,
Bb
Iʼm gonna keep my smiles in the bread box, you get home
A
you chokeʼem down with water when you leave me all alone.
Dm
Iʼm gonna tell my eyes not to see no colors,
C
Iʼm gonnal tell my ears not to take no lovers,
Bb
Gonna keep my head underneath the covers,
A
keep my eyes on you, I donʼt need no others.
Dm
Throw away all my old letters,
C
Gonna sit in the kitchen and trim my feathers,
Bb
I got a picture of you to replace the sky,
A
If I lose you in the crowd I lay down and I die.
