Berikut ini lirik dan chord lagu “Blue Bloods” dari Death Cab for Cutie.
Capo 1
[Verse 1]
A F#m C#m
All the east coast blue bloods have come out west
A F#m C#m E
And I watch them argue about who loved you the best
D F#m
I was conspicuously of my kind
D C#m
Overdressed, but woefully under-refined
D A C#m E
Well‚ the story held together like boulders with a piece of twine
[Chorus]
D
Three helicopters circling
A C#m C#
Retreating and returning
D Esus F#m
Your photographs were on the news
B7 Dmaj7 Esus F#m
And I was there just out of view
[Verse 2]
A F#m C#m
I was standing with a smile chiseled into my head
A F#m C#m E
With a mind in retreat to the places I wished I would've been
D F#m
When you caught my gaze‚ I turned away
D C#m
Planned an exit like a grand escape
D A C#m E
As I watched you spinning through the revelers like a cheap ballet
[Chorus]
D
These words all sound familiar
A C#m C#
Convictions are forever
D Esus F#m
You tied a wish to a balloon
B7 Dmaj
Watched it fly into the blue
[Bridge]
Esus F#m Bm
But you will find some day soon
D
That it will fall
E Dmaj7 Esus F#m
Yes‚ it will fall, they all do
[Refrain]
Dmaj7 Esus F#m
Because they all do
Dmaj7 Esus F#m
Because they all do
Dmaj7 Esus F#m
They all do
D E F#m
Because they all do
[Outro]
D E F#m (x7)
Dmaj7 Esus F#m (x4)
