BOMBAY BLUES - MYSTERY JETS
CAPO 3RD FRET
STANDARD TUNING
 
A
A baby, young and sweet
 
A Maharashtra night, a city street
           Em
And I feel low
           A
Hear her crying in her sleep
 
A blanket of newspaper sheets
       Em
By my window
               A
There's no worse sound that I could hear
                                         Em
Or hope of life that I fear she'll never know
                A
Oh those Bombay Blues
 
          G
And the harder you push her away
                                              A
The sooner your heart turns a darker shade of grey
        Em
But the more you allow her in
                                                   A
The longer she'll live beneath the surface of your skin
 
(PAUSE)               G Em
Oh and now that I can seeeee
                     A F#m Bm
How love becomes the enemyyyyy
                                 G Em
They say there's nothing you can doooo
                                 A F#m Bm
But that's what they want you to believe
 
         A
Full moon party on the beach
                                Em
Burning holy effigies on Summer sands
         A
Temporarily mend the holes
 
In your chimerical soul
            Em
In a mystic land
 
         G
But all the beautiful things that you love
                                          A
Will one day turn into the things that you despise
         Em
'Cuz the darkness lives within
 
And the more that you hide it
                       A
The darker it stains your skin
 
(PAUSE)               G Em
Oh and now that I can seeee
                   A F#m Bm
How love becomes a memoryyy
                                  G Em
And you say there's nothing I can do
                         A F#m Bm
If that's what you wanna believe
                      G Em
Oh and now that I can see
                     A F#m Bm
How love becomes the enemyyyyy
 
You say there's nothing I can do
                         A F#m Bm
If that's what you wanna believe
                              G Em
There's clearly nothing I can say
                      A F#m Bm
That will make her go awayyyyyy
                                G Em
Don't say there's nothing I can doooo
                         A F#m Bm
If that's what you wanna believe
