Song: "The Blackest Day"
Artist: Lana Del Rey
Album: "Honeymoon"
Track: 11
[Intro]
A F#m
[Verse]
F#m E
Carry me home, got my blue nail polish on.
D F#m E
It's my favorite color and my favorite tone of song,
F#m E
I don't really wanna break up, we got it going on,
D F#m E
it's what you gathered from my talk, but you were wrong.
[Pre-Chorus]
D E F#m
It's not easy for me to talk about, I have heavy heart strings,
D E
I'm not simple, it's trigonometry. It's hard to express,
I can't explain.
[Chorus]
F#m E
Ever since my baby went away
D F#m E
it's been the blackest day, it's been the blackest day.
F#m E
All I hear is Billie Holiday,
D F#m E
it's all that I play, it's all that I play.
F#m E
Because I'm going deeper and deeper, harder and harder,
D F#m E
getting darker and darker, looking for love
A D F#m E
in all the wrong places, oh my god.
A D F#m E
in all the wrong places, oh my god.
[Verse 2]
F#m E
Carry me home, got my new car and my gun.
D F#m E
Wind in my hair, holding your hand, listen to a song.
F#m E
Carry me home, don't wanna talk about the things to come,
D F#m E
just put your hands up in the air, the radio on.
[Pre-Chorus]
D E A
'Cause there's nothing for us to talk about like the future and those things,
D E
'Cause there's nothing for me to think about now that he's gone
I can't feel nothing.
[Chorus]
F#m E
Ever since my baby went away
D F#m E
it's been the blackest day, it's been the blackest day.
F#m E
All I hear is Billie Holiday,
D F#m E
it's all that I play, it's all that I play.
F#m E
Because I'm going deeper and deeper, harder and harder,
D F#m E
getting darker and darker, looking for love
A D F#m E
in all the wrong places, oh my god.
A D F#m E
in all the wrong places, oh my god.
[Bridge]
D F#m
You should've known better than to have to let her,
E
get you under her spell of the weather.
D F#m
I got you where I want you, you did it, I never.
E
I'm falling for forever, I'm playing the game since.
D F#m
I got you where I want you, I got you, I got you.
E
I got you where I want you now.
[Chorus]
F#m E
Ever since my baby went away
D F#m E
it's been the blackest day, it's been the blackest day.
F#m E
All I hear is Billie Holiday,
D F#m E
it's all that I play, it's all that I play.
[Outro]
D F#m
It's not one of those phases I'm going through,
E
or just a song.
A D
It's no one else's, I'm on my own.
F#m E
On my own, on my own again.
A D F#m E
I'm on my own again, I'm on my own again,
A D F#m E
I'm on my own again, I'm on my own again.
