Blue Chalk

(início)

INTRO: C  G  Dm  Am  F  G   (2x)
C
So I wonder how she's doing
G
I hate it when the rumors fly
Dm                   Am
They give off such a strange sense of mission
 F                         G
Wing your helplessness on high
C
But she would never run from strangers
G
She sang alone like a bell will toll
Dm            Am
Way above the clang and the clatter
F                        G
Out of fear of her demon soul
INTERLUDE: C  G  Dm  Am  F  G
C
Maybe none of this is my business
G
And none of what I hear is true
Dm                Am
I am far from the mint condition
F                     G
Circulation's hard on you
CHORUS:
C
Hold tight, hang tough
G
Love's not enough
Dm              Am
To keep you off that stuff
F        G
To save you
F
Hold tight, hang tough
Am7
Love's not enough
   Dm                Am
To keep you off that stuff
    F    G   C
To save you now
INTERLUDE: C  G  Dm  Am  F  G   (3x)
C
He could always find the holes in the bottles
G
Even with a blindfold on
Dm             Am
Never kept his seat on the wagon
F                  G
Rolling off like a rolling stone
C
Blue chalk between his fingers
 G
Hustling a poolroom song
Dm               Am
He always kept a line for the singers
F                G
Pointing his cue right from wrong
CHORUS:
C
Hold tight, hang tough
G
Love's not enough
Dm              Am
To keep you off that stuff
F        G
To save you
F
Hold tight, hang tough
Am7
Love's not enough
Dm                   Am
To keep you off that stuff
    F    G   C
To save you now
INTERLUDE: C  G  Dm  Am  F  G
