[Verse]
C D G C
Blue, blue, my songs are blue
F C F G
Songs about dreaming, songs about the truth
F C G C
Songs about leaving and songs about you
G
And songs about a love affair
[Verse]
F C G C
I travelled to North Carolina
F C F G
But I couldn’t find my dreams
F C G C
All of the roads ran in different directions
G C
All of the songs were the same
[Chorus]
G
Each new day of the week, a new secret to keep
New strings on an old guitar
F C G C
Call me up anytime, night or day
G C
And we'll both know just where we are
[Verse]
D G C
Green, green, it's a landscape scene
F C F G
Painted by numbers, if you know what I mean
F C G C
You could have used purple not aquamarine
G
For your picture of a love affair
[Verse]
F C G C
You travelled to Indonesia
F C F G
You sipped India and China tea
F C G C
If you went away to find yourself
G C
How come you ended up losing me
[Chorus]
G
Each new day of the week, a new secret to keep
New strings on an old guitar
F C G C
Call me up anytime, night or day
G C
And we'll both know just where we are
[Verse]
D G C
Fool's gold, my dreams are gold
F C F G
So easy to wake from, much harder to hold
F C G C
The songs that I sing and the stories I've told
G
The stories of a love affair
[Verse]
F C G C
I travelled to North Carolina
F G
But I couldn’t find my dreams
F C G C
All of the roads ran in different directions
F G C
All of the songs were the same
[Verse]
D G C
Blue, blue, my songs are blue
F C F G
Songs about dreaming, songs about the truth
F C G C
Songs about leaving and songs about you
G
And songs about a love affair
G
Songs about a love affair
