Blue Lips

Intro 8x: Dm

Dm                         Bb
he stumbled into faith and thought,
        F          C
 God, this is all there is?
Dm                       Bb
the pictures in his mind arose
      F      C
and began to breathe
Dm                          Bb
and all the gods in all the worlds
                     F   Em   Dm Bb C
began colliding on a backdrop of blue

blue veins

Dm                           Bb
he took a step but then felt tired
              F             C
he said, I'll rest a little while
Dm                         Bb
but when he tried to walk again
     F      C
he wasn't a child
Dm                         Bb
and all the people hurried past
                                F Em Dm Bb C
real fast and no one ever smiled

blue, the color of our planet from far, far away

Dm                         Bb
he stumbled into faith and thought,
        F         C
 God, this is all there is?
Dm                       Bb
the pictures in his mind arose
      F      C
and began to breathe
Dm                        Bb
and no one saw and no one heard
          F        C
they just followed lead
Dm                      (F) Bb
the pictures in his mind arose
      F      C
and began to breed

Dm                                      Bb
they started off beneath the knowledge tree
                                                F
then they chopped it down to make white picket fences
                                C
and, marching along the railroad tracks,
                                F   Dm
they smile real wide for the camera lenses
Dm                          Bb
they made it past the enemy lines
                                          F  Em Dm Bb C  F Em Dm Bb C
just to become enslaved in the assembly lines
