Intro
A
A G D A
[Verse 1]
A G
Multicolored faces, and red hands and blue hands
D A
Grasp at the shapes in his mind
A G
Blackbirds and bluebirds are resting on his shoulder
D A
Waiting for their moment to fly
G D A
Multicolored feathers against the sky
(same chords progression)
Silver shadows spread over the landscape
Draped over the background as a veil
And were getting drunk while we look into sunrise
(mute)
Singing songs of men who had it all but died in jail
[Chorus]
A G
Whatever forever
D A
We keep our heads up high Our voices strong
A G
You taught me how to be keen of mind and clever
D A
The ways of the world, where I belong
[Verse 2]
A
We got lost in the middle of the desert
We prayed for a little luck, we came out smiling
We looked up above we saw the black and blue birds flying
The colors against the sky
G D A
And I know one day they’ll die
G D A
Cause I know one day you’ll die
G D A
Cause even multicolored angels die
[Chorus]
A G
But whatever forever
D A
We keep our head up high
A G
But whatever forever
D A
We keep our head up high
