Intro
 
Am Em G D
 
[Verso 1]
Am Em
I heard you calling on the megaphone
G D
You wanna see me all alone
Am Em
As legend has it, you are quite the pyro
G D
You light the match to watch it blow
 
[Pré-Refrão]
Am Em
And if you'd never come for me
G D
I might've drowned in the melancholy
Am Em
I swore my loyalty to me, myself, and I
G D
Right before you lit my sky up
 
[Refrão]
Am
Everything is blue
F
His pills, his hands, his jeans
C
And now I'm covered in the colors
G
Pulled apart at the seams
Am
And it's blue
C
And it's blue
Am
Everything is grey
F
His hair, his smoke, his dreams
C
And now he's so devoid of color
G
He don't know what it means
Am
And he's blue
C
And he's blue
 
[Verso 2]
Am G
You were a vision in the morning when the light came through
C G
I know I've only felt religion when I've lied with you
Am G
You said you'll never be forgiven 'til your boys are too
C G
And I'm still waking every morning, but it's not with you
 
[Pré-Refrão]
Am G
You're dripping like a saturated sunrise
C
You're spilling like an overflowing sink
Am G
You're ripped at every edge, but you're a masterpiece
C G
And now you're tearing through the pages and the ink
 
[Refrão]
C G
All that time, I sat alone in my tower
Em
You were just honing your powers
D
Now I can see it all
C G
Late one night, you dug me out of my grave and
Em D
Saved my heart from the fate of Ophelia
Am Em
Keep it one hundred on the land, the sea, the sky
G D
Pledge allegiance to your hands, your team, your vibes
Am Em
Don't care where the hell you've been, 'cause now you're mine
G D
It's 'bout to be the sleepless night you've been dreaming of
Am
The fate of Ophelia
 
[Ponte]
Am G
You were red, and you liked me because I was blue
Am
'Tis locked inside my memory
Em
And only you possess the key
C G
You touched me, and suddenly I was a lilac sky
G
No longer drowning and deceived
Am C G
Then you decided purple just wasn't for you
D
All because you came for me
 
[Refrão]
Am
Everything is blue
F
His pills, his hands, his jeans

And now I'm covered in the colors

Pulled apart at the seams
Am
And it's blue

And it's blue
Am
Everything is grey
F
His hair, his smoke, his dreams
C
And now he's so devoid of color
G
He don't know what it means
Am
And he's blue
C
And he's blue
