Chords Thrice - The Color Of The Sky
Lyrics Thrice - The Color Of The Sky
[Intro]
Dsus2
My first and foremost memory
C/D Dsus2 D/C
Is staring up in wonder at the wall
Dsus2
It circumscribed the city
D/C Dsus2 D/C
They said beyond it nothing dwelt at all
Bb/D
But I
C/D Dsus2
Came to wonder if the stories all were true
Bb/D
So one night I made my mind up
C/D Dsus2
I resolved that I would find a passage through
[Verse 1]
Dsus2
And as I made my plans
C/D Dsus2 D/C
My head would spin and swiftly dance between the whys
Dsus2
Like why the roads were all dead ends
C/D Dsus2 D/C
Why we’d no word to name the color of the sky
Bb/D
And why
C Dsus2
Did these tunnels lead me deep beneath the streets?
Bb/D
When I was through I lit my lamp
C Dsus2
With something soft and green and damp beneath my feet
[Chorus]
Dm
And I don’t know the way
G/C
But I know
Bb
That I belong out here
G/C
On this journey that I never thought I’d make
Bb
Setting out
G
Across some new frontier
Dsus2
A new horizon with each eager step I take
{Verse 2]
Dsus2
As the stars begin to fade
C/D Dsus2 C/D
I stride to meet the breaking day and breathe it in
Dsus2
It rakes over my tongue
C/D Dsus2
So crisp and cool inside my lungs, against my skin
Bb/D
And I
C Dsus2
See the colors burst and bloom beneath the dawn
Bb/D
Oh, the brilliance overwhelms me
C Dsus2
Leaves me wondering what new world I’m even on
[Chorus]
Dm
And I don’t know the way
G/C
But I know
Bb
That I belong out here
G/C
On this journey that I never thought I’d make
Bb
Setting out
G
Across some new frontier
Dsus2
A new horizon with each eager step I take
[Interlude]
Same as the chorus
[Chorus]
Dm
And I don’t know the way
G/C
But I know
Bb
That I belong out here
G/C
On this journey that I never thought I’d make
Bb
Setting out
G
Across some new frontier
