Dm F
they're so hesitant to shine.
C G
and late at night when we're all tired and sleeping,
Bb F
they light the world that we leave behind.

C G
while you go out at night you get piss drunk and comment
Bb F

Dm Em Am
but it's so difficult to say.
Dm Em C G Am
'cause baby, the words sound like we're talking underwater
F G
when you're so, when you're so far away.
C G
well, if i only had a gutter
Dm F
well, i could catch it when it falls.
C G
but my basement's slowly filling up with water.
Bb F
it's running down the concrete walls.
C G
and you could say it's been a bad year
Bb F
and you'd be saying something true.
C G

Bb F
one with seven shades of blue.
