Lyrics

(CN.C.)I can

see you o ver there, star ing at your drink, watch ing that ice sink all a (Am)lone to night.

And

chanc es are you’re sit ting here (D)in this bar ’cause he ain’t gon na (G)treat you right.

Well, it’s prob ’ly not my place, but I’m gon na say it an y way, ’cause (Am)you look like

you have n’t felt the fire, had a lit tle (D)fun, have n’t had a smile

in a lit tle while, ba by.

(G)Blue

looks good on the (Am)sky,

looks good on that (C)ne on buzz ing on the wall, but, (D)dar ling, it don’t match your eyes.

I’m tell ing you,

you don’t need that (Am)guy.

It’s so black and (C)white; he’s steal ing your (D)thun der.

Ba by, (C)blue

(G)ain’t your col or.

I’m not tryin’ to be an oth er “just pick you up” kind of guy tryin’ to drink you up, (Am)tryin’ to take you home.

But I just don’t un der stand how an oth er (D)man can take your sun and turn (G)it ice cold.

Well, I’ve

had e nough to drink, and it’s mak ing me think that I

just might

tell you:

if I were a paint er, I would n’t (D)change you.

I’d just paint you bright,

ba by.

’Cause col or,

(Em)no, no, no.

It ain’t your col or, (Em)ba by.

Mm, ba by.

(G)Blue

looks good on the

sky,

looks good on that (C)ne on buzz ing on the wall, but, (D)dar ling, it don’t match your (G)eyes.

I’m tell ing you,

you don’t need that (Am)guy.

It’s so black and (C)white; he’s steal ing your (D)thun der.

Ba by, (C)blue (G)ain’t your col or.

(C)Blue (G)ain’t your

col or.
