*if you want, you can replace these chords with Eb(b5). I'm not sure how accurate it is, but regardless, it
The final Gm in the outro can also be replaced with G5.
[Verse 1]
GmSick of all these people talking, sick of all this noise
EbTired of all these cameras flashing, sick of being poised
GmAnd now my neck is open wide, begging for a fist around it
Eb F/A*
Already choking on my pride, so there's no use crying about it

And there's an Cm/Ebold man sitting on the throne that's saying that I F/Cprobably shouldn't be so mean
I'm headed straight for the caGmstle, they’ve got this kingdom locked Eb/Gup
And there's an Cm/Ebold man sitting on the throne that's saying I should F/Cprobably keep my pretty mouth shut
[Verse 2]

G
He don't know what it means
Am F
And he's blue
C G
And he's blue
[Bridge]
Am
You were red and you liked me because I was blue
F
But you touched me and suddenly I was a lilac sky
C
Then you decided purple
G
Just wasn't for you

Everything is blue

His pills, his hands, his jeans
C
And now I'm covered in the colors
G
Pull apart at the seams
Am F
And it's blue
C G
And it's blue
Am
Everything is grey

His hair, his smoke, his dreams
C
And now he's so devoid of color

He don't know what it means

And he's blue

And he's blue
