D  Bm  G  A


Verse 1:
        D
Well, I lie
     Bm
Lie awake
     G
On a cool
     A
Damn night
       D                Bm
Giving it all up to the darkness
        G
Just to see
                       A
Just to visit with the light
       D             Bm
And it makes my eyes well again
                 G
Just to think of where we've been
              A
Since we've begun

Chorus:
         D
Count my wrongs and multiply them
       Bm                            G
By the rights to justify just what I feel
              A
What I feel inside
        D
Well, I don't
                Bm
I don't seem to worry
               G
No love about worrying
               A
Too much these days


Verse 2:
          D
'Bout the time left to get things done
       Bm                        G
Or the years as, as they come my way
                     A
They all vanish into one
     D                        Bm
So I paint while all of their fears
                   G
Yeah, swallow this life
                        A
As I watch them fade to grey


Chorus:
          D
Colors of orange, red, black and green
                 Bm
They all have me bursting at the seams
                      G
And I know that every day
              A
It is a dyin' day


Post-Chorus:
            D
And it goes on and on and on and on and on
Bm
On and on and on and on
                       G
Yes, love, 'cause this life (On and on and on and on)
             A
It is just a song (On and on and on and on)

What I feel inside

Colors of orange, red, black and green
            Bm
All have me bursting at the seams
                      G
And I know that every day
               A
It is a livin' day
