You were married in the mirrored hall when I was 16
You spoke the words, "I love girls in white leather jackets"
That was good enough for love, it was good enough for me
(Listen for correct timing of when to play these three chords)
I listened in when you thought you were lost
Caught in those fangs on a tornado sprawl
C G (Optional chord G/f, as you walk down to the E)
Who knows what you know
I only heard what I wanted
You said I was your blue, blue baby
And you were right
You said I was your blue, blue baby
And you were right
Same chords and timings as first verse, up until "That was good
enough for love" when you go to a C instead of an F, then back to Am to start the
second verse.
Wondered the halls of the nighttime
My body burned, my legs ached
But you never came to bed
You just left me there awake
You kept me wanting wanting wanting
Like the wanting in the movies and the hymns
I want the pharaohs, but there's only men
I want the pharaohs, but there's only men
You said I was your new blue baby
And you were right
You said I was your new blue baby
And you were right
This is pretty accurate, you just have to listen to the song for certain timings,
since it's difficult to write it out. Hope this helps you out!!!
