Chords

[Intro] Cmaj7 [Verse 1]
Cmaj7
Some days when I'm far away

     Fsus4
In a lonely room in a cold seclusion

Cmaj7
  Some nights when I'm wound so tight

        Fsus4
There is no release, there is no solution

Cmaj7
  In hell there's a big hotel

         Fsus4
Where the bar just closed and the windows never opened

Cmaj7
  No phone so you can't call home

       Fsus4
And the T.V. works, but the clicker is broken

Eb           B/F  F   Eb/G          Fadd2   F/A   F
  But in the darkness,   I see your light turned on

Eb/Bb       Bb/C F/C  Eb            Fadd2 F       G
You know my weak ness,  you know how  I  respond to
[Chorus]
G           D
Blonde over blue

      C                   C/G        G
Your hands are cold, your eyes are fire

G            D
Blonde over blue

   C                                  F
They shine as though you're burning inside

G                D     C            C/G     G
  One word from you is all I need to be inspired

G           D
Blonde over blue

C                 C G/B  G  F      Cmaj7
I need your inspira-tion tonight
[Verse 2]
Cmaj7
These days there's a million ways

      Fsus4
To be pulled and torn, to be misdirected

Cmaj7
  These times there are sins and crimes

       Fsus4
On the morning shows for the disconnected

Cmaj7
  I look and I write my book

      Fsus4
And I walk away with the wrong impressions

Cmaj7
  I don't care 'cause I've done my share

      Fsus4
And I need some time for my own obsessions

Eb          Bb/F F   Eb/G             Fadd2 F/A F
  It doesn't mat ter,   I've let that life  go  by

Eb/Bb          Bb/C F/C  Eb          Fadd2 F      G
  It's been for-got-ten, 'cause all I wanted was you
[Chorus]
G           D
Blonde over blue

      C                   C/G       G
Your hands are cold, your eyes are fire

G           D
Blonde over blue

C                                     F
They shine as though you're burning inside

G             D      C            C/G     G
One word from you is all I need to be inspired

G           D
Blonde over blue

C                 C G/B  G  F
I need your inspira-tion tonight

Cmaj7
These days not a damn soul prays

         Fsus4
And there is no faith 'cause there's nothing to believe in

Cmaj7
  These days only good luck pays

      Fsus4
If we don't get paid then we try to get even

Cmaj7
  I look and I write my book

      Fsus4
And I have my say and I draw conclusions

Cmaj7
  Some nights when I'm wound so tight

        Fsus4
There is no release, there is no solution

Eb           B/F  F   Eb/G          Fadd2   F/A   F
  But in the darkness,   I see your light turned on

Eb/Bb       Bb/C F/C  Eb            Fadd2 F       G
You know my weak ness,  you know how  I  respond to
