Scorpio rising
Intro: (Drums)
Cm-Ab-Gm-; (2x)
I’m old enough to know that my stars just won’t let go
At this day and age I can see that the world was meant for me
Some people laugh at what you’re doing, they hold you in the sand
I’m having hard time adjusting to these changes
Ref:
I can see that your lips are moving
But I can’t hear what you’re saying
Is it yes or is it no? Is it stop, or is it go?
Is it suck or is it throw? Or is it me or am I just too slow?
Interlude: (do ICP, 4x)
(Do stanza chords)
I’m young enough to think that the world looks good in pink
But as far as I can see that ain’t enough for me
Some people hear what you’re saying, they pull you by the strings
I’m having troubles taking things day by day
Ref 2:
When I see you I see red and green
You’re like the biggest tree I’ve ever seen
But it cuts you down, oh down to size
The apple of my eyes is rotting in the ground
Interlude: (Do ICP 8x)
Ref 3:
I see the future burning in their eyes
but I don’t care what it’s saying
Is it high or is it low, is it high or is it low
Is it sink or is it grow, is it twister, a-he, he-he-hey
Interlude: (Do ICP 4x)
Bridge:
Cm (Pause) G (Pause)
I wrote this song while I’m eating beans
Cm (Pause) G (Pause)
Now don’t you try to ask me what that means?
Cm (Pause) G (Pause)
It’s just like asking me to tell you my dreams
Cm (Pause) G
I would have told you long ago
But now it seems you’re far away
Here comes a loony bin, come to take me away
You put a scar in my twisted face
In the yearbook I look out of place
I see my letter burning in your hand
It took me 25 years just to understand
Coda:
(Do ICP)
Blue is the color of my skin
Blue is the color of my skin
(Drums)
Blue is the color of my…
Woh!
Cm-Ab-Gm-; (5x)
