Joni Mitchell - Blue - Live 1974 chords
Start Jamming...
[Bm] Blue
[B]
[Bm] Songs are like tattoos
You know I've [B] been to sea [E] before
[Bm] [F#] Crown [E] and anchor me
Or [A] let me [G] sail home
[E]
[Bm] Hey blue
There is a song for [F#] you to
Ink on a pen
Underneath the skin
An empty space to [E] fill
[Bm] Well there's so many sinking
Now [E] you gotta keep thinking
You [Bm] can't make it through these waves
Acid booze and [D] ass needles [E] guns and
Lots of laughs
Lots of [G] laughs
[B]
[Bm] [F#]
[D] [B] Everybody's saying that hell's a heathless way to go
Well I don't think so
But I'm gonna take [A] a look around [Bm] at the blue
[B] I love [F#m]
[F#] [E]
[B] [Bm] [A]
[Bm] blue
Here is [F#] a shell for you
Inside [E] you'll hear a [F#] sigh
A [Em] foggy lullaby
[B] There is a song from [Bm] me
[F#m] [B]
[Bm]
[E] [F#] [B]
[B]
[N] All
[G]
[A]
[D] [G]
[D] right.
[G#m] [G]
[D] That's one thing that's always been a major [N] difference
between the performing arts to me and being a painter.
Like a painter does a painting, and he does a painting.
That's it.
He's had the joy of creating it, and he hangs it on some wall.
Somebody buys it, somebody buys it again, or maybe nobody buys it,
and it sits up in a loft somewhere till he dies.
But nobody ever says to him, nobody ever said to Van Gogh,
Paint a starry night again, man.
You know, he painted it, that was it.
[Bm] [G] Let's sing this song together, [F#] okay?
[E] This song doesn't sound good with one lonely voice.
It sounds good with the more voices on it the better,
and the more out-of-tune voices on it the better.
[A]
It was made for out-of-tune singing, this song.
