Blue Eyes 03:21
G Emin A D G B C A7 I fell in love with your smiling face An awkward beauty with a beautiful grace We didn’t dance, but you liked my style So I bent my ear, just to hear you a while G B C A7 G B D D When you had to go I tried to make you stay I could see that you would but there just wasn’t a way You made a fatalistic phrase and hoped we’d meet again Then I was back on the road and I was wonderin’ when G Emin A D Blue eyes, how’d you get so cold How’d you go from so pretty To so bitter and old Blue eyes, you’re the one that I wanted By your smile I’m haunted Now your ghost has moved on G B C A7 You found me when I’d been looking for days It was only by luck, we’d hadn’t shared our last names Saw a photo of you and I just couldn’t believe That those incredible eyes were scanning photos for me G B C A7 G B D D Then we wrote about our dreams and we talked on the phone After two tepid years I finally wasn’t alone And I bought myself a ticket to your town so far from mine I could see you were excited as we counted down the time (Chorus) G B C A7 I landed at the airport You came to pick me up Things were lookin’ pretty good I finally had a little luck But somehow out of nowhere Everything went really weird Then you drank way too many vodkas It got worse than I had feared B C G D B C D Emin B C G D B C D And you locked me out Of your heart and your house I had nowhere to go I had nobody else My hopes lay on the sidewalk But my bags were still inside Now I’m trying to forget you But this shame I just can’t hide (Chorus)

Isaac Newton 03:32
C6 Cmaj7 C Cmaj7 Dmin11 Underneath the apple trees In the breeze That’s where I wanna be You attract me with your gravity Constantly Despite the distance in between Won’t you turn my lead to gold Before I grow old Fadd9 Dadd11 Fadd9 Dadd11 And I turn cold Whichever way the wind should blow I’ll follow Where she goes I’ve got to know Won’t you turn my lead to gold Before I grow old It’s not impossible I’m told Won’t you turn my lead to gold Before I grow old And I turn cold Underneath the apple trees In the breeze Won’t you take me please

Dog Days 03:12
B E F# Everybody seems to have that acquisitive eye Working their jobs, collecting their pay Meanwhile the world outside is quickly passing them by Solstice approaches so let’s make the most of this And stay outside for days on end Though we know this cannot last forever For a while we may as well pretend Underneath the open sky the dark will bend to the light Sunbeams caress us, daydreams take flight One day we’ll all awake to find the dog days have left us behind Time is relentless, elusive and precious So stay outside for days on end Though we know this cannot last forever For a while we may as well pretend Bridge C#min E B F# Stay outside for days on end Though we know this cannot last forever For a while we may as well pretend You know we may as well pretend B E F# Gdim
