Melanie – Cerulean Blue (Guitar)

         C
And it's blue as in cerulean

         G                 Am
It's the scent of new mown hay

F
Laugh and turn the pages

             C               G
When there's nothing left to say

         C
And it's true that a thing of brilliance

       G               Am
Can be paled by dimmer light

F
Spin the tale of ages

    C                   G
And get me through this night

Am              C
Tragedy takes a number

F      C        G
Beauty takes to flight

Am            C
Reason's on vacation

         F       C    G
And it's killing me tonight

          C
There's a row of oleander

       G                     Am
That divides your house from mine

F
Stifles words of anger

    C                    G
And keeps the neighbours blind

          C
There's a star set in the distance

      G              Am
Of a steely cold and grey

     F
With lights on the horizon

      C              G
As we look the other way

         C
And it's blue as in cerulean

         G                 Am
It's the scent of new mown hay

F
Laugh and turn the pages

             C               G
When there's nothing left to say

         C
And it's true that a thing of brilliance

       G               Am
Can be paled by dimmer light

F
Spin the tale of ages

    C                   G
And get us through this night

Am              C
Tragedy takes a number

F      C        G
Beauty takes to flight

Am            C
Reason's on vacation

         F       C    G
And it's killing me tonight

          C
There's a music in the silence

     G                    Am
Of a spring that plays no more

  F
A desert in our future

      C               G
And a knocking at the door

          C
There's a peace for the unknowing

          G              Am
There's a warning to the wise

  F
A smile upon the faces

       C          G
Of our ruin in disguise

         C
And it's blue as in cerulean

         G                 Am
It's the scent of new mown hay

F
Laugh and turn the pages

             C               G
When there's nothing left to say

         C
And it's true that a thing of brilliance

       G               Am
Can be paled by dimmer light

F
Spin the tale of ages

    C                   G
And get us through this night
