Blue Bloods

For me this one’s up there with Transatlanticism. [Verse 1]   All the east coast blue bloods have come out west And I watch them argue about who loved you the best I was conspicuously of my kind Overdressed but woefully under-refined Well‚ the story held together like boulders with a piece of twine [Chorus]   Three helicopters circling   Retreating and returning D                       Esus   F#m   Your photographs were on the news And I was there just out of view          [Verse 2]   I was standing with a smile chiseled into my head With a mind in retreat to the places I wished I would’ve been   When you caught my gaze‚ I turned away Planned an exit like a grand escape As I watched you spinning through the revelers like a cheap ballet   [Chorus]   These words all sound familiar   Convictions are forever D                    Esus  F#m   You tied a wish to a balloon            B7           Dmaj Watched it fly into the blue [Bridge]             Esus         F#m    Bm But you will find some day soon That it will fall Yes‚ it will fall they all do           [Refrain]                 Dmaj7  Esus  F#m Because they all do                 Dmaj7  Esus  F#m Because they all do         Dmaj7  Esus  F#m They all do Because they all do     [Outro] Dmaj7 Esus  F#m (x4)
