Introduction:
C D G C Em D
The color of the sky as far as I can see, its coal gray
C D G C Em D
lift my head from the pillow and then, fall again
G C Em D
shiver in my bones just thinking about the weather
G C Em D
quiver in my lip as if I might cry
C D G C Em D
by the force of will my lungs are filled, and, so I breathe
C D G C Em D
Lately it seems this big bed is where I never leave
Chorus:
G C Em D
shiver in my bones just thinking, about the weather
G C Em D
quiver in my voice as I might cry
G C D
What a cold and rainy day
G C D
Where on earth is the sun hid away?
C D G C Em D
I hear the sound of a noon bell chime, well I'm far behind
C D G C Em D
you put in 'bout half a day, while, here I lie
(Chorus)
D
Do I need someone here to scold me?
C
Or do I need someone, who'll grab and pull me out of
D C G
Four poster, dull torpor, pulling downward
G C D
For it's such a long time since my better days
G C D
I say my prayers nightly, this will pass away
C D G C Em D
The color of the sky is gray as I can see, through the blinds
C D G C Em D
Lift my head from the pillow and then, fall again
(Chorus)
G C D G C D
A cold and rainy day I shiver, quiver, and try to wake
