Blue Chair by Elvis Costello






                  Blue Chair







[Intro stays on D]

D                        G         D
 Now it's just you and me, my blue friend
D
 And you say that it's you that she's thinking of
G          F#7
 And our affair must end
D
 But if it's you that she's thinking of
G                              F#7
 I think my broken heart might mend

         G          F#m      Em           D
Now it's my turn to talk and your turn to think
G            A       D          G
Your turn to buy and my turn to drink
G            F#m     Em         D
Your turn to cry and my turn to sink
G                Em
 Down in the Blue Chair
G     A           D
 Down in the Blue Chair

Now I've made up my mind
I've made my mistake
And I know that she cries for you
When she's barely awake
Well she's going to bend your mind
Well I hope it don't break

[Repeat chorus]

                 Em
Down in the Blue Chair
       F#m       G
We can watch our troubles rise
     F#m            Em
Like smoke into the air
          A         D
And drift up to the ceiling
                 Em
Down in the Blue Chair
        F#m              G        F#m
You can feel just like a boy or a man
         Em             A             D
And next minute you can find yourself kneeling
                 F#m
Down in the Blue Chair
        G#m         A          G#m
They're boasting of loving the daylights
      F#m        G#m          Bm
right out of her in the small hours
                 Em
Down in the Blue Chair
    F#m           G             F#m
You say that your love lasts forever
     Em           G          A     A/G  A/F#     A/E
when you know the night just hours      uh ho ho ho ho ho

And still I want her right now
Not any minute, hour or day
And wherever she is tonight
I want her anyway
I suppose she never said to you,
You were just in the way

         G          F#m      Em           D
Now it's my turn to talk and your turn to think
G            A       D          G
Your turn to buy and my turn to drink
G            F#m     Em         D
Your turn to cry and my turn to sink
G                Em
 Down in the Blue Chair
G     A           D
 Down in the Blue Chair
G                Bm
 Down in the Blue Chair
Bb    A           D   [N.C.]
 Down in the Blue Chair

G     A           D
 Down in the Blue Chair
G     A           D
 Down in the Blue Chair
G     A           B7
 Down in the Blue Chair

Em    F#m
  Down in the blue
G        Bm
 Blue becomes you
G     A           D
 Down in the Blue Chair
