Intro: / Fadd2 - - - - - / - - - - - - /

 

Fadd2             G#maj7

Shame on you   Seducing everyone

Fadd2              G#maj7

Faded jewel   You diamond in the rough

A#6                        Fadd2

You don't have to tell me  I know where you've been

G#maj7         Fadd2

Shining once again

 

Fadd2               G#maj7

Will you do   The thing you've always done

Fadd2               G#maj7

Tell me true    I think you know the one

A#6                        Fadd2

One that makes me blurry  Colors start to run

  G#maj7      F5 (4, w/F Riff)

Every time I wonder    I go under

 

Chorus 1:

     F5 (1)               C/E (1)     Bb5 (1)   F/A (1)

The deeper the blues the more I see black

  F5 (1)                C/E (1)               Bb5 (1)   F/A (1)

Sweeter the bruise the feeling starts coming back

         G                  Bbm

All the deepest blues are black

 

Fadd2                             G#maj7

How my mind is spinning   And my head is going numb

Fadd2                          G#maj7

Right from the beginning   Our ending had begun

A#6                       Fadd2

I can be your trouble   Shiver into you

  G#maj7           F5 (4, w/F Riff)

Shaking like the thunder  Sinking under

 

Chorus 2:

     F5 (1)               C/E (1)     Bb5 (1)   F/A (1)

The deeper the blues the more I see black

  F5 (1)                C/E (1)               Bb5 (1)   F/A (1)

Sweeter the bruise the feeling starts coming back

         G                  Bbm

All the deepest blues are deepest blues are

 

 

Bridge:

 Fadd9          G#maj7

Black  When it comes closing in

 Eb                     Bb

Reject  'Cause I gotta move

         Fadd9                   G#maj7

And the simple things get in the openings

    Eb                      Bb

Connect   Become something new

      Db (4)

To remove

 

Chorus 2 x2

 

  F5 (4, w/F Riff)

Black
