Codeine Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[G]I rode in on a river of cod[C]eine
Lost myself, found myself,
killed myself and brought myself [G]alive[F][G]
I was pulling heavy loads
of [C]sweet dreams
Escape the crowd, find the sound,
look around and nothing's as [G]good
[F]But[G] now I'm back and it's lov[C]ely,
painted in colour
[G]Where's that twirling ramp
called the [C]hour?
There's never time enough to jive
But we're in love,
so let's love while we can
[G]And[F] I [G]gave a silver
coin to an [C]old friend
We bonded off, floated off, jacked it off
Now he's a [G]goner
[F]But[G] now I'm back and it's lov[C]ely
Painted in [G]colour, oh,
[C]right[G][F][G][F][G]
[C][G][C][G][F][G]
[F][G][C]
I [G]saw myself outside picking [C]flowers
A brief bouquet, a small array
All in a day, a work done in [G]sun[F]light[G]
And I miss the boys and girls of my [C]homeland
I know that at least I'm aware
That they don't care that I'm [G]illegal
[F]But[G] now I'm back at
it prob[Bb]ably[C]
[Bb]Painted in col[C]or
[G]But now I'm back at it [Bb]proba[C]bly
[Bb]Painted in [C]col[G]or[C][A][Bb][C][G][Bb]
[C][G][C][A][Bb][C][G]
[Bb][C][G]
