Chords

[Intro] D G [Verse 1]
D            G
Your skin is cold

        D     Dmaj7  Bm    Dmaj7 G
But the sun shines within your hold

D             G
Your hair is gold

      D     Dmaj7  Bm    Dmaj7 G
But you see through a goldfish bowl

       Gm   Eb        Em
I feel old, sick, and tired

D           G
We walk the streets

Dmaj7 G    Dmaj7 C
Gently staring,

D          C     G
wondering what to do

D           G
The sun in sheets

Dmaj7 G    Dmaj7 C
Pouring down those

Bmaj7  A    Bmaj7         Em
streets to eyes green and blue
[Pre-chorus]
      C    Cmaj7 D    G         C    Cmaj7 D    G
And a ship with eight sails could come round the bend

      C    Cmaj7 D    G         C    Cmaj7 D    G
Or a heard of bulls charging stoplights red

Dmaj7
I'd be blind
[Chorus]
G         C    G     Am
You broke my heart, danny boy

G    C    G     Am
Not your fault, danny boy

Am               Dmaj7
I was had at the doorstep

Am               Dmaj7
Played, like a two to a four-set

Am                     Bm    Dmaj7 G
Had, like poor job in the bible by god
[Verse 2]
D            G
Day comes, I wake

D     Dmaj7  Bm   Dmaj7 G
I wake with a hard heartache

Gm   Eb        Em   D
I go down to your place

D         G
We sit and chat

Dmaj7 G    Dmaj7 C
chat about new

D          C     D    C    Dmaj7 G
york and trips to the bayou

D            G
My smile, a trick

Dmaj7 G    Dmaj7 C
Tricking me and trying

Bmaj7  A    Bmaj7 Em
not to scare you
[Pre-chorus]
      C    Cmaj7 D    G         C    Cmaj7 D    G
And a ship with eight sails could come round the bend

      C    Cmaj7 D    G         C    Cmaj7 D    G
Or a heard of bulls charging stoplights red

Dmaj7
I'd be blind
[Chorus]
G         C    G     Am
You broke my heart, danny boy

G    C    G     Am
Not your fault, danny boy

Am               Dmaj7
I was had at the doorstep

Am               Dmaj7
Played, like a two to a four-set

Am                 Bm    Dmaj7 G
Had, like poor job in the bible by god

Am               Dmaj7
I was had at the doorstep

Am               Dmaj7
Played, like a two to a four-set

Am                 Bm    Dmaj7 G
Had, like poor job in the bible by god
[Outro]
Dmaj7    G
No, no, no, no, no

Dmaj7    G
No, no, no, no, no
G
