C        G7/B        Am           G/C
F   Dm/F        Em/G   Am         G



🎸 Verse 1:

C        G7/B                     Am
Blue sky when you gonna learn to rain?
    G/C             F       Dm/F
And let yourself go blue for once
    Em/G           Am
And let go of that weight you've been carrying
    C        G7/B                     Am
In this house no one goes to sleep for days
     G/C                     F       Dm/F
It's like we're working on a mountainside
 Em/G         Am
Trying not to slide

Into the ocean


🎸 Pre-Chorus:

Dm7         G       G7sus4
I can take care of you
 Dm7         G       G7sus4
But only if you want
 Dm7         G       G7sus4
I'm strong enough to carry you

Bb             Bbaug   Gb(#11)/Bb   Gb/Bb
Across the icy lake
Bb             Bbaug   Gb(#11)/Bb   Gb/Bb
across the icy lake
Bb                      A
But I can't fight your blues


🎸 Chorus:
                   Dm
'Cause I know I'll lose
        C          G
What's left of my mind
   Am        Dm
And I can't win
        C          G
But for you I will try
       G7
Oh, my baby blue

🎸 Verse 2:
    C        G7/B                     Am
My mountain is hidden in a pile of trees
    G/C                        F       Dm/F
And she's the one I'll have to climb
     Em/G       Am
If I ever wanna see

C        G7/B                     Am
Blue sky when you gonna learn to rain?
    G/C             F       Dm/F
And let yourself go blue for once
    Em/G           Am
And let go of that pain?

I can take care of you
 Dm7         G       G7sus4
But only if you want
 Dm7         G       G7sus4
I'm strong enough to carry you

Bb             Bbaug   Gb(#11)/Bb   Gb/Bb
Across the icy lake
Bb             Bbaug   Gb(#11)/Bb   Gb/Bb
across the icy lake
Bb                      A
But I can't fight your blues


🎸 Chorus:
                   Dm
'Cause I know I'll lose

And I can't win
        C          G
But for you I will try

For you
    Dm    C    G
For you

My baby blue
