Regina Spektor - Blue Lips

Dm			   A#	    
he stumbled into faith and thought,    
	F	   C    
"God, this is all there is?"    
Dm			 A#    
the pictures in his mind arose    
      F	     C    
and began to breathe    
Dm			    A#    
and all the gods in all the worlds    
		     F   Em   Dm A# C    
began colliding on a backdrop of blue    
     
     
G    F    
blue lips    
F    Dm		Em -Dm- -x8-    
blue veins    
     
     
Dm			     A#    
he took a step but then felt tired    
	      F		    C    
he said, I'll rest a little while    
Dm			   A#    
but when he tried to walk again    
     F	    C    
he wasn't a child    
Dm			   A#    
and all the people hurried past    
			        F Em Dm A# C    
real fast and no one ever smiled    
     
     
G    F    
blue lips    
F    Dm	    
blue veins    
	  F		Em	   Dm    
blue, the color of our planet from far, far away    
     
     
Dm                         A#    
he stumbled into faith and thought,    
	F	  C    
"God, this is all there is?"    
Dm			 A#    
the pictures in his mind arose    
      F	     C    
and began to breathe    
Dm			  A#    
and no one saw and no one heard    
	  F	   C    
they just followed lead    
Dm		        -F-A#    
the pictures in his mind arose    
      F	     C    
and began to breed    
     
     
Dm				   	A#    
they started off beneath the knowledge tree    
						F    
then they chopped it down to make white picket fences    
				C    
and, marching along the railroad tracks,    
				F   Dm    
they smile real wide for the camera lenses    
Dm			    A#    
they made it past the enemy lines    
					  F  Em Dm A# C...  F Em Dm A# C    
just to become enslaved in the assembly lines    
     
     
G    F    
blue lips    
F    Dm	    
blue veins    
	  F		Em	   Dm    
blue, the color of our planet from far, far away    
     
     
G Dm		 F Em  Dm    
blue... the most human color...     
     
     
G    F    
blue lips    
F    Dm	    
blue veins    
	  F		Em	   Dm    
blue, the color of our planet from far, far away
