C  Em  D  Am
 Mm, mm, mm

Chorus:
C Em     D                                   Am
I try to live in black and white, but I'm so blue
C   Em      D                           Am
I'd like to mean it when I say I'm over you
                     C     Em
But that's still not true -Blue-
                 D        Am
And I'm still so blue, oh

Verse 1:
Am                    Em
I thought we were the same
           D                 Am
Birds of a feather, now I'm ashamed
             C                 Em
I told you a lie, désolé, mon amour
              D                          Am
I'm tryin' my best, don't know what's in store
            C
Open up the door -Blue-
                  Em                  D
In the back of my mind, I'm still oVerseas
            Am                              C
a bird in a cage, thought you were made for me

Chorus:
  Em           D                                            Am                         C
I try -I'm not what- to live in black and white, but I'm so blue -But I'm not what you need-
    Em                 D                               Am
I'd like -Not what you need- to mean it when I say I'm over you
                     C        Em
But that's still not true, true
                 D
And I'm still so blue -And it's not true-
    C                   Em
I'm true blue, true blue
             D Am
I'm true blue

Outro:
C   Em       D    Am
-Blue- Mm, mm, mm

Ah-ah

Ah-ah

Verse 1:
              Cm
You were born bluer than a butterfly
                             G
Beautiful and so deprived of oxygen
Cm
Colder than your father's eyes
                                    G
He never learned to sympathize with anyone

Chorus:
        Cm
I don't blame you
            G
But I can't change you
      Cm
Don't hate you -Don't hate you-
             G
But we can't save you -But we can't save you-

Verse 2:
              Cm
You were born reachin' for your mother's hands
                                 G
Victim of your father's plans to rule the world
Cm
Too afraid to step outside
                          G
Paranoid and petrified of what you've heard

Bridge:
                       Cm
But they could say the same 'bout me

I sleep 'bout three hours each night
                                G
Means only twenty-one a week now, now
                    Cm
And I could say the same 'bout you

Born blameless, grew up famous too
                      G
Just a baby born blue now, now

Chorus:
        Cm
I don't blame you -I don't blame you-
            G
But I can't change you
      Cm
Don't hate you
             G
But we can't save you -But we can't save you-

Ooh-ooh

It's over now
