Adding The Blue

 C                                       F 
Everybody's asking where did you go ?
                                                   C 
This was gonna be my masterpiece
               C                                               F 
The paint's not even dry yet, oh no
                                                                 Am 
I could trace the outline of a shadow
                                       Em 
I need blood and breath
                           G 
To mix my colours
                               C 
Where did you go
                         G 
After you promised me a portrait
                           Am                               F 
Took off your clothes, held a pose
                           C                     G 
Drawing your arms, your hands and veins
                                         Am 
And fingers and your lips
                 F 
Broken nose
                 C                             G 
On your eyes, so just stare into the distance
                     Am                                         F 
Please don't move, whatever you do
                                               C

 C                                               F 
I know I'm not Monet or Van Gogh
                                                             C 
I can't draw like S. Clay Wilson
           C 
You got inside this brush
                         F 
That drips with red
                                                   Am 
I can't draw from memories or photos
                                       Em 
I need blood and breath
                   G 
But you left me nothing
                               C 
Where did you go
                         G 
After you promised me a portrait
                           Am                               F 
Took off your clothes, held a pose
                           C                     G 
Drawing your arms, your hands and veins
                                         Am 
And fingers and your lips
                 F 
Broken nose
                 C                             G 
On your eyes, so just stare into the distance
                     Am                                         F 
Please don't move, whatever you do

     C 
Closed this chapter yesterday
   G                                                               Am 
Take this page and throw it away
                                                                     F 
Fill the holes in, sand the wall
You were never here at all
           C                                                             G 
The warmth where someone never stood
                                                     Am 
Promises were never good
                                                                       F 
The smell of human sweat and tears
A passing thought, the passing year, baby
                               C 
Where did you go
                         G 
After you promised me a portrait
                           Am                               F 
Took off your clothes, held a pose
                           C                     G 
Drawing your arms, your hands and veins
                                         Am 
And fingers and your lips
                 F 
Broken nose
                 C                             G 
On your eyes, so just stare into the distance
                     Am                                         F 
Please don't move, whatever you do
