Long Island Blues Chords

Standard (EADGBE)

Intro

C Am F Em G

 I Csee a drug bust in your eyes

 There are Fbruises on your tChighs

 I can teFll you’re trying toC hide, all the FdarknesAms in your Gmind

 You Cgot saw dust on your toes

 From that Fsports bar down the Croad

 You have bFeer glass in your feCet, you say kFiss me Amon the cGheek

 Some Cpeople get paid to talk

 Some pFeople get paid to lCisten

 Some pFeople buy a tickCet and can’t Fwait foAmr intermiGssion

 Just Clike some will love you blindly

 Some wFill love you with coCnditions

 Some wFill love you like an Cunborn child loves FfamilAmy tradGition

 NowC she is tainted by the syringe

 Trying to Frhyme a word with oCrange

 I’m a chFeap and ugly sinCner, to who soul lFove iAms forGeign

 So if you’re sFideways

 And if you wanna go Cmy way

 Before a meteoric shGower

 Decides the earth should be devCoured

 Whether you’re locked up in a tFower

 Or you’re charging by the hCour

 In mama’s eyes you are a flGower

 Forget the after taste if life got sCour

 Will you finish what you stFarted

 Travel the seas you never pCarted

 Remember things you disregGarded

 Communicate with the depCarted

 Believe in things you thought weren’t fFounded

 Prepare to always be astCounded

 Or keep your dreams and visions grGounded

 It took a while but then I fCound it.

 NoC one inspired you in time

 So you lFeft your love behCind

 In a woFrld that can discoCurage one who is youFng and fAmull of cGourage

 YouC said you’d start at the bottom

 But Finstead you start at theC top

 Be cFareful what you wish fCor because on your laFp it mAmight just Gdrop

 So Cit’s a lonely life at the bottom

 Can be Flonely too at the tCop

 Make suFre your heart is siCnging right unFtil the dAmay it stGops

 TheyC’ll say dream but what they mean

 Is Fbe specific or obCscene

 It’s Ftime to find some Ctime to fail at wFhat makes Amyou most Ghappy

 SomeCtimes you concentrate on lovers

 To fForget everything elCse

 SomeFtimes you hate eachC other to foFrget youAm hate yoGurself

 So if you’re sFideways

 And if you wanna come Cmy way

 Before a meteoric shGower

 Decides the earth should be devCoured

 Whether you’re locked up in the Ftower

 Or if you charge 'em by the hoCur

 To me you’ll always be a flowGer

 Forget the after taste if life got sCour

 Will you finish what you sFtarted

 Before you celebrate with a cigaCr lit

 Remember things you disregGarded

 Communicate with the depCarted

 Prepare to always be astFounded

 Believe in things you thought weren’t fCounded

 Don’t keep those dreams and visions grGounded

 It took a while but now I fCound it.
