[Intro]
D   G
 
[Verse 1]
D            G
Your skin is cold
        D     Dmaj7  Bm    Dmaj7 G
But the sun shines within your hold
D             G
Your hair is gold
      D     Dmaj7  Bm    Dmaj7 G
But you see through a goldfish bowl
       Gm   Eb        Em
I feel old, sick, and tired
D           G
We walk the streets
Dmaj7 G    Dmaj7 C
Gently staring,
D          C     G
wondering what to do
D           G
The sun in sheets
Dmaj7 G    Dmaj7 C
Pouring down those
Bmaj7  A    Bmaj7         Em
streets to eyes green and blue
 
[Pre-chorus]
      C    Cmaj7 D    G         C    Cmaj7 D    G
And a ship with eight sails could come round the bend
      C    Cmaj7 D    G         C    Cmaj7 D    G
Or a heard of bulls charging stoplights red
Dmaj7
I'd be blind
 
[Chorus]
 
G         C    G     Am
You broke my heart, danny boy
G    C    G     Am
Not your fault, danny boy
Am               Dmaj7
I was had at the doorstep
Am               Dmaj7
Played, like a two to a four-set
Am                     Bm    Dmaj7 G
Had, like poor job in the bible by god
 
[Verse 2]
D            G
Day comes, I wake
D     Dmaj7  Bm   Dmaj7 G
I wake with a hard heartache
Gm   Eb        Em   D
I go down to your place
D         G
We sit and chat
Dmaj7 G    Dmaj7 C
chat about new
D          C     D    C    Dmaj7 G
york and trips to the bayou
D            G
My smile, a trick
Dmaj7 G    Dmaj7 C
Tricking me and trying
Bmaj7  A    Bmaj7 Em
not to scare you
 
[Pre-chorus]
      C    Cmaj7 D    G         C    Cmaj7 D    G
And a ship with eight sails could come round the bend
      C    Cmaj7 D    G         C    Cmaj7 D    G
Or a heard of bulls charging stoplights red
Dmaj7
I'd be blind
 
[Chorus]
G         C    G     Am
You broke my heart, danny boy
G    C    G     Am
Not your fault, danny boy
Am               Dmaj7
I was had at the doorstep
Am               Dmaj7
Played, like a two to a four-set
Am                 Bm    Dmaj7 G
Had, like poor job in the bible by god
Am               Dmaj7
I was had at the doorstep
Am               Dmaj7
Played, like a two to a four-set
Am                 Bm    Dmaj7 G
Had, like poor job in the bible by god
 
[Outro]
Dmaj7    G
No, no, no, no, no
Dmaj7    G
No, no, no, no, no
