Declan McKenna - In Blue

C
[ verse 1 ]
E Am E
i made a wrong turn , in blue
F G C
how the rain kept me inside?
E Am E
i built a house from sticks and twine
F G C
and you said it would serve me fine
G Am E
but then the rain could soak me through
F
[ chorus ]
G Am
and when she lies , she says you’re lying too
B C
in blue
F
[ verse 2 ]
C G Am E
like how you told me then to go ahead and try it
F G C
anything to keep me quiet
G Am E
i caught the mirror head on as i grew
F
[ chorus ]
G Am
and when she smiles , she knows i’m happy too
B C
in blue
F G Am
and when she smiles , i know i’m happy too
B Am C
in blue , in blue
[ post – chorus ]
G Am D
i caught a glimpse of it , your brilliance
F G C
all too much and all too clever
E Am D
i caught a fever like i always do
F C
and still you let me stand with you , in blue
[ verse 3 ]
G Am E
i wash the dishes , no sweat

all for show and no purpose

i bet next year i’ll see you all the time

the fault is all deserved as mine
F G
the fault is all deserved as mine

C G Am E
and i wake up inside a matchstick house
Dm C
was it all on purpose?

was this true?
C G
oh , and i’ve been waiting
Am E
quiet as a mouse
F C G
tell me and be honest , was this you?
F
’cause when i talk i’m not so boring

will i catch you sleepy , snoring?
F G Am
when you’re out of luck , will i be too?
