Blue Lips

He stumbled into faith and (Bb)thought,

"God, this is (F)all

there (C)is."

(Dm)The pictures in his mind arose

and began to (C)breathe.

(Dm)And all the gods and all the worlds began colliding on a (C)backdrop (Dm)of (Bdim)blue.

(Gm)Blue (F)lips, blue (Dm)veins.

(Dm)He took a step but then felt (Bb)tired,

he said I'll rest a little (C)while.

(Dm)But when he tried to walk again,

he (F)wasn't a (C)child.

(Dm)And all the people hurried fast,

real fast, and no one ever smiled.

(Gm)Blue (F)lips, blue (Dm)veins.

Blue, the color of our (C)planet from (Dm)far,

far away.

(Gm)Blue (F)lips, blue (Dm)veins.

Blue, the color of our (C)planet from (Dm)far,

far away.

He stumbled into faith and (Bb)thought,

"God, this is (F)all

there (C)is."

(Dm)The pictures in his mind arose and began

to (C)breathe.

(Dm)And no one saw and no one (Bb)heard,

they just (F)followed (C)lead.

(Dm)The pictures in his mind awoke

and began to (C)breed.

(Dm)They started off beneath the knowledge tree,

and they chopped it down to make a picket fence.

And marching along the railroad tracks,

they smiled real wide for the cam'ra lens as they made it past the enemy lines,

just to become enslaved in the assembly lines.

(Gm)Blue (F)lips, blue (Dm)veins.

Blue, the color of our (C)planet from (Dm)far,

far away.

(Gm)Blue (F)lips, blue (Dm)veins.

Blue, the color of our (C)planet from (Dm)far,

far away.

(Gm)Blue, (F)the most (Dm)(C)human (Dm)color.
