[Intro 1]
[G][C][D][G][C][D]

[Verse 1]
[G]Living in colour,
living in colour
I can [C]see the paint on your [D]toes
[G]Living in colour
Even in the [C]blackout, I [D]know

[Verse 2]
[G]I am flo[C]ating, I, I am [G]floating
[C]With my eyes closed, with no [D]sails
[G]I am soaking[C],
I am weathered [G]by the [C]winter of mixed [D]drinks

[Verse 3]
[G]Am I dancing am am I nervous
simply [C]spinning in my own [D]grave
[G]You were asking, you, you were asking
And with [C]two steps, I'm [D]saved

[Verse 4]
[G]Living in colour, living in colour
I can [C]see the paint on your [D]toes
[G]Living in colour
Even in the [C]blackout, I know

[Interlude 1]
[D][G][C][D][G][C]
[D]

[Verse 5]
[G]Weeks gone by, I was weak
I was paler than [C]a pine box that holds [D]bones
[G]She poked the iris,
then she [C]pierced a [G]hole
And [C]watched [G]the colour [C]rush [D]forth

[Verse 6]
[G]Modern Madonna, who held my head in
[C]Warm hands, with pink [D]nails
[G]Mark my mouth,
whisper that [C]the sickness will go [D]away

[Verse 7]
[G]Living in colour, living in colour
I can [C]see the paint on your [D]toes
[G]Living in colour
Even in the [C]blackout, I [D]know

[Verse 8]
[G]Living in colour, living in colour
I can [C]see the paint on your [D]toes
[G]Living in colour
Even as I [C]blackout, I know
[D]

[Verse 9]
[Em]
And though I dreamt with a [G]rapid [C]eye
By day I hope to [D]rapidly [G]die
And have my organs [D]laid [C]on ice
Wait for somebody that would
[D]treat them [Em]right
And as the night started [G]swallow[C]ing
You put the blood to my [D]blue [G]lips
Forced the life through still vein[C]s
Filled my heart [D]with red again
Liv[G]ing in colour,

[Verse 10]
living in colour
I can [C]see the paint on your toes
[D]Living in colour
Even in the blackout, I know

[Verse 11]
Living [G]in colour, living in colour
I can see the paint on your toes
Living in colour
Even in the [C]blackout, I [D]know

[Verse 12]
[G]Living in colour, living in colour
I can [C]see the paint on your [D]toes
[G]Living in colour
Even as I [C]blackout,

[Outro 1]
I know
