Bluest Of Blue

[Intro]
C
 
 
[Verse 1]
C                      Em
 What you gonna hold against her now
Dm                         G         F
 Would you rather were to sing her praises?
C                                 Em
 Working from the stern right up to the bow
Dm                         G       F
 Learning how to find her secret places
C                             Em
 What you gonna say as they shut their eyes?
Dm                       G          F
 Yearning to remain in their good graces
C                                  Em
 Will you smell the sea, will you see the sky?
Dm                           G       F
 Painted on their young and hopeful faces
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]
                G
Something to believe
Em              Am
 Somewhere to be free
   Dm           G    C
A sanctuary at sea
 
 
[Chorus]
F        C/E         Dm       C
 Blue, blue as the bluest of hues
        G/B                 C
In the sea as she sails on by
F        C/E           Dm        C
 True, true like the truest of true
       G/B                    C
In her eyes as she waves goodbye
  Dm           G
Truest of true
  Dm           G
Bluest of blue
 
 
[Verse 2]
C                          Em
 How you gonna tell this story now?
Dm                               G     F
 It's getting so much harder to cover bases
C                           Em
 Say it like it is or just feed them lies
Dm                                G       F
 And cover up the truth with your oily phrases
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]
                G
Something to believe
Em              Am
 Somewhere to be free
   Dm           G    C
A sanctuary at sea
 
 
[Chorus]
F        C/E        Dm         C
 Blue, blue as the darkest of hues
        G/B                   C
In the sea as you watch her cry
F        C/E          Dm          C
 True, true like the saddest of truth
       G/B                   C
In her eyes as she says goodbye
  Dm           G
Truest of true
  Dm           G
Bluest of blue
 
 
[Instrumental]
C   Em   Dm   G   F 
(2x)
 
 
[Chorus]
F        C/E         Dm       C
 Blue, blue as the bluest of hues
        G/B                 C
In the sea as she sails on by
F        C/E           Dm        C
 True, true like the truest of true
       G/B                   C
In her eyes as she waves goodbye
  Dm           G
Truest of true
  Dm           G
Bluest of blue
  Dm           G
Truest of true
  Dm           G
Bluest of blue
