Touch of Grey

In A

Verse - only need half

bridge = Bm BM E 

Clocks are running late
Paint by numbers morning sky
Looks so phony

   Dawn is breaking everywhere

   Light a candle, curse the glare
   Draw the curtains, I don't care
   'Cause it's alright

I will get by I will get by I will get by
I will survive

I see you got your list out
Say your piece and get out
Yes, I get the gist of it
But it's alright

   Sorry that you feel that way

   The only thing there is to say
   Every silver lining's got a
   Touch of grey

It's a lesson to me
The Ables and the Bakers and the C's
The ABC's
We all must face
And try to keep a little grace

It's a lesson to me
The Deltas and the East and the Freeze
The ABC's
We all think of
And try to keep a little love

I know the rent is in arrears
The dog has not been fed in years
It's even worse than it appears
But it's alright

   Cows are giving kerosene

   The kid can't read at seventeen
   The words he knows are all obscene
   But it's alright

The shoe is on the hand, it fits
There's really nothing much to it
Whistle through your teeth and spit
'Cause it's alright

    Oh, well, a touch of grey

    Kind of suits you anyway
    That was all I had to say, and
    It's alright
