Bottom of the Sea Blues Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[A]My [D]age is my condition
My [A]love is my in[G]tent
I'll pay [Bm]time with ageless [G]love
I'll forget [F#m]what came and w[A]ent
For a well [F#m]full o[A]f content
[D]

[Verse 2]
There's a space in the [G]heavens
There's [F#m]a hole in my [A]heart
There's [G]a l[D]ack of fine d[G]ining
gone to [F#m]work on my a[A]rt
And a fla[Bm]vour of [G]fullness
Is an [F#m]empty retreat
[A]And the res[D]taurant buf[G]fet
isn't [F#m]all I can eat
[A]

[Verse 3]
My [D]age is my condition
[A]My love is my inten[G]t
I'll pay [Bm]time with ageless [G]love
I'll [F#m]forget what came and [A]went
For a well full of content
[D]

[Verse 4]
[A]Colors at [G]dawn swallow [D]me[Bm][D]
[Em]Colors at [Bm]night set me free
[G]

[Verse 5]
Hard [D]work to get [G]up
Too [F#m]quick to get [A]down
While [D]love, food, [G]and money
Do all the [F#m]trade in this [A]town
[Bm]The bar's looking [G]hollow
And my [F#m]bones are still [A]white
[D]I haven't the pat[G]ience
[F#m]to stay out tonight
[A]

[Verse 6]
My [D]age is my [A]condition
My love is my in[G]tent
I'll pay [Bm]time with ageless [G]love
Or for[F#m]get what came and we[A]nt
For a well full [F#m]of con[A]ten[D]t

[Verse 7]
Stuck with [D]thoughts of [G]the buttercups
And [F#m]the bees that [A]do naught
But [D]suck on [G]the yellow as
[F#m]nature has [A]taught
I'll [Bm]suck on the col[G]ors that I
[F#m]find in t[A]he sea
[D]The blues and the [G]greens,
they [F#m]don't bother me
[A]

[Verse 8]
My [D]age is my condition
[A]My love is my in[G]tent
I'll pay [Bm]time with ageless [G]love
I'll forget [F#m]what came and w[A]ent
For a well full of content
[D]

[Verse 9]
My soul is in the trees
It's in the sap that fills the wood
It's in the [A]rings that tell her age
It's in [G]the smoke that marks the days
It's in the [Bm]fire in my heart
It's in the [G]embers in the soot
It's in the [F#m]place I put the ash
It's in the soil
[A]It's in the grass
It's in the mouths of all the herd
It's in the [D]beetles and the birds
It's in the [A]feathers that I found one
morning [G]lying on the ground
It's hallelu[D]jah, aye and oh
It's where I've been and where I go
It's in the [Em]people that I meet
It's kneeling si[Bm]lent at their feet
It's ever [G]dutifully yours
It stems my pride
And opens doors

[Verse 10]
My [D]age is my condition
[A]My love is my inten[G]t
I'll pay [Bm]time with ageless [G]love
I'll forget [F#m]what came and w[A]ent
For a well full [F#m]of con[A]tent
[D]

[Verse 11]
[A]Colors at [Bm]dawn [G]swallow me[D]
[Em]Colors at night [Bm]time set me free
[G][C][G]
