Cmaj7Cmaj7  G+G Am7Am7
Cmaj7Cmaj7  G+G Am7Am7


Verse 1:
Cmaj7Cmaj7               G+G
When I think of violet I think of you
     Am7Am7        Cmaj7Cmaj7
I see you tryin' to make it cool
              G+G   Am7Am7
On autopilot, just how you do to me
Cmaj7Cmaj7              G+G
And it's terrifying when you get blue
   Am7Am7        Cmaj7Cmaj7
Every time, it feels overdue
            G+G    Am7Am7  Cmaj7Cmaj7
All your colors sinkin' through me

Refrain:
        G+G    Am7Am7 Cmaj7Cmaj7
I lie in bed awake and wait
         G+G
For it to go away
    Am7Am7  Cmaj7Cmaj7
But it always stays


Verse 2:
Cmaj7Cmaj7               G+G
When I think of violet I think of you
     Am7Am7         Cmaj7Cmaj7
My mind reminds me the purple hue
               G+G         Am7Am7
Matched the sight of another bruise you left on me
Cmaj7Cmaj7             G+G
So I compromise the way I view and
        Am7Am7        Cmaj7Cmaj7
See through my eyelids for bulletproofing
                G+G    Am7Am7 Cmaj7Cmaj7
Know you didn't try to do what you did to me


Outro:
