Capo 2nd fret
Standard (EADGBE)
Intro
I picked a colour long ago to suit my tawdry tales of woe,
and now it doesn't fit.
My friend who's a fan of shades traveled to the ever glades,
and asked if I'd come with.
There's no one that I would rather see, she's a special friend to me.
But I feel I'd be leaving you behind.
That's the game of love and war, choose the side you're fighting for.
See if there's a white flag to be raised.
I know it's not a fair assessment,
but I can't be asked to wrestle with the colours of who you've now become.
'Cause you and I, we're not the same, and neither can be held to blame.
It's just the way the story has to end.
Being here and being there.
There's no space for being where I feel I should be.
Loneliness is like a drink,
think you're on the verge of sinking when you tame the sea.
Interim's are good for suckers
feeling like they're down on luck,
and I'm not gonna drown in my own tears.
I can't ask you anymore to be the one that I adore only when the time is
right for me.
So let's just be
Outro
Aaah (and whistle)
Enjoy!
