Gray, quiet and tired and mean,
D        G
Picking at a worried seam,
  D     C9
I try to make you mad at me
Em7      D
Over the phone.

G    D                 Cadd9
Red, eyes and fire and signs,
    D                  G
I’m taken by a nursery rhyme,
  D                     Cadd9
I want to make a ray of sunshine,
    Em7            D
And never leave me home.

CHORUS:
Cadd9       D
No amount of coffee, no amount of crying,
G       Em7
No amount of whiskey, no amount of wine,
A               Cadd9
No, no, no, no, no.
Bm      Em        A
Nothing else will do, I gotta have you
C D          G
I gotta have you

BRIDGE:
Em7          D
The road gets cold,
           Cadd9         D
There’s no spring in the middle this year,
Em7          D           Cadd9        D
And I’m the new chicken clucking open hearts and ears.
Em7        D
Oh, such a prima donna,
Cadd9     D
Sorry for myself.
Em7             D
But green, it’s also summer,
Cadd9          A              Em          D   Dsus4 D
And I won’t be warm until I’m laying in your arms.

G            D                       Cadd9
    I see it all through a telescope,
            D                G
Guitar, suitcase, and a warm coat,
D                   Cadd9
Lying the back of a blue boat,
D
Humming a tune...
