Intro: (Drums) Cm-Ab-Gm-; (2x)
Cm                  Ab   Gm                Cm                   Ab   Gm
I’m old enough to know that my stars just won’t let go

          Cm                  Ab   Gm                Cm                   Ab   Gm
At this day and age I can see that the world was meant for me

Cm                                Ab   Gm                 Cm                   Ab   Gm
Some people laugh at what you’re doing, they hold you in the sand

Cm                     Ab   Gm                        Cm-Ab-Gm
I’m having hard time adjusting to these changes
Ref:
Ab                           G
I can see that your lips are moving

          Cm                               G
But I can’t hear what you’re saying

Ab            G           Ab               G
Is it yes or is it no? Is it stop, or is it go?

Ab              G                     Ab              G
Is it suck or is it throw? Or is it me or am I just too slow?
Interlude: (do ICP, 4x) (Do stanza chords) I’m young enough to think that the world looks good in pink But as far as I can see that ain’t enough for me Some people hear what you’re saying, they pull you by the strings I’m having troubles taking things day by day Ref 2:
Ab                             Bb
When I see you I see red and green

Gm                                     Cm
You’re like the biggest tree I’ve ever seen

            Ab                          Bb
But it cuts you down, oh down to size

                Ab                              Bb
The apple of my eyes is rotting in the ground
Interlude: (Do ICP 8x) Ref 3:
Ab                     Gm                                    
I see the future burning in their eyes

        Cm                           Ab 
but I don’t care what it’s saying

Ab            G               Ab               G
Is it high or is it low, is it high or is it low

Ab              G                    Cm               Gm
Is it sink or is it grow, is it twister, a-he, he-he-hey
Interlude: (Do ICP 4x) Bridge:
Cm (Pause)                                    G (Pause)
I wrote this song while I’m eating beans

Cm (Pause)                                        G (Pause)
Now don’t you try to ask me what that means?

Cm (Pause)                                      G (Pause)
It’s just like asking me to tell you my dreams

Cm (Pause)                          G
I would have told you long ago

                   Ab                 Bb        
But now it seems you’re far away

                       Ab                        Bb             Gm
Here comes a loony bin, come to take me away

                  Ab                        G        
You put a scar in my twisted face

          Ab                                 G        
In the yearbook I look out of place

             Ab                                 G        
I see my letter burning in your hand

                Ab                     Bb    G      Cm-Ab-G       
It took me 25 years just to understand
Coda: (Do ICP) Blue is the color of my skin Blue is the color of my skin (Drums) Blue is the color of my… Woh! Cm-Ab-Gm-; (5x)
