Tuning: Standard (EADGBe)

 

To be honest I'm pretty rubbish at figuring out chords, but I was annoyed at the lack of

for this song (although its probably cause it's played on piano) and I thought I'd give

a try. These chords are probably not totally accurate so any constructive criticism is 

but I'm just trying to get a basic layout for the song.

 

All the chords are pretty straightforward except I don't know the name of the following

so I'll just name it B?.

 

B?

Intro: C B? Am

C        B?                      Am

Blue sky when you gonna learn to rain?

                    F        G

And let yourself go blue for once

                  Am

And let go of the weight you've been carrying

C              B?                       Am

In this house, no one goes to sleep for days,

                           F            G

Its like were working on a mountainside

              Am

Trying not to slide,

 

Into the ocean,

 

Dm         G

I can take care of you

Dm              G

But only if you want

Dm                   G

I'm strong enough to carry you

A#             Dm    A#             Dm

Across the icy lake, across the icy lake

                      A

But I cant fight your blues,

                  Dm

Cause I know I'll lose

       C           G

What's left of my mind

       Dm

I cant win,

        C           G

But for you I will try

   G (let ring)

My baby blue

 

 

My mountain is hidden in a pile of trees

And its the one I'll have to climb,

If I ever wanna see,

Over the ocean

Blue sky

When you gonna learn to rain?

And let yourself go blue for once

And let go of the pain?

 

I can take care of you

The way you'd like to feel

Underneath the riverbed

Across the icy lake, across the icy lake

But I cant fight your blues

Cause I know I'll lose

What's left of my mind

I cant win,

But for you I will try

For you

My baby blue
