A Brighter Shade Of Blue Guitar Chords Sleep On It

[Intro]

F A# F A# F

[Verse 1]
 F
Like flowers at your mother's wedding
               A#
The brighter shade of blue
 F                                A#
I'm clutching to the way I felt about you
   F
Before the bags under my eyes
         A#
From tossing in my bed at night
  F            Gm     A#
Now I know I never really loved you

[Instrumental Strumming]

 F A# F A#

[Verse 2]
 F                                            A#
Your parents tied a knot just like the one that's in my chest
  F                                 A#
The home they built is broken from the silence
 F
You hold the past over your head
    A#
Drowning in your self regret
 F              Gm             A#
I'll never be enough for what you wanted


[Chorus]
F            C               A#
I'll never know what's good for me
   F           C                                                                                --
So go ahead, tear me down
          F
'Cause I am weaker than I seem
      C                  F                             Gm
Yeah it's cool 'cause I can smile and pretend
             F
That you're not wasting space in my head


[Verse 3]
 F                                     A#
The record keeps on skipping all the songs you love the most
  F                                  A#
You're everything I hate about the east coast
 F                                  A#
You always said that I would be a warmth that you could hold
          F             Gm         A#
You are only just a blanket that always left my feet cold


[Chorus]
Dm           C                  A#      F
I'll never know what's good for me
              Dm      C
So go ahead, tear me down
                   F      A#
'Cause I am weaker than I seem
 Dm         C                  A#                         F
Yeah it's cool 'cause I can smile and pretend
 Gm          Dm                  A#
That you're not wasting space in my head


[Bridge]
 Gm        F                              C
Now I'm shaking, you're drying in the breEEeze
Gm          A#        F
I've been trying to wash the memories out of our sheets

[Instrumental Strumming]

 F A# F C A#

[Chorus]
 Dm         C                   A#                F
I'll never know what's good for me
       Dm         C
So go ahead, tear me down
             F              A#
'Cause I am weaker than I seem
 Dm        C                A#            F
Yeah it's cool 'cause I can smile and pretend
 Gm              Dm           A#
That you're not wasting space in my head
Gm            Dm            A#
You're not a waste of space to me


[Outro]
  F
Like flowers at your father's wedding
                A#
The brightest shade of blue
 F                               A#
I'm questioning the way I feel about you
