Portrait In Black And Blue

[Verse 1]
Am9       C9
Spastic gyrations
Dm9                     F#m7b5
And abbreviated bathing suits
    Fmaj7      Dm7b5
See I suit you
        Am9          C9
Cause I could be you
      Dm9
And I could show you true
                   F#m7b5             Fmaj7
Till the cold runs through and through
     Dm7b5               Am9
A portrayal in black and blue
 
[Chorus]
Am9
Gm9
                      Fmaj7  Dm9
I'm not painting this lie anymore
Am7                    Am9 Gm9
Since it was all I had to adore of you
    Fmaj7        E7#9 Am7
And all I had to say
              Fm6      E7#9 Am7 Fm6
Girl you keep running away
 
[Verse 2]
     Am9                  C9
Well time never gave me a chance
               Dm9
I shoulda been there
         Dm9
Well you laid me bare
        Fmaj7
Took my soul to wear
       F#m7b5          Dm7b5
Left a hole to despair
                   Am9
See what I'm going through
          C9
You never even knew
               Dm9
That's nothing on my plate
                          Fmaj7
Trapped in a lizard state
                 Am9
My mind's at the gate
Dm7b5            Am9
Looking for an escape
 
[Chorus]
Am9
Gm9
                      Fmaj7  Dm7b5
I'm not painting this lie anymore
Am7                    Am9 Gm9
Since it was all I had to adore of you
    Fmaj7        Dm7b5  Cmaj7
And all I had to say to you, girl
Am9
Gm9
                      Fmaj7  Dm7b5
I'm not painting this lie anymore
Am7                 Am9 Gm9
And I'm dark and I'm in awe of you
    Fmaj7          Dm7b5 Am9
And all you had to say
         Fm6        E7#9  Am7 Fm6
It never hit me the same, boy
