[Intro]
F
F Eb Bb F
[Verse 1]
F Eb
Multicolored faces, and red hands and blue hands
Bb F
Grasp at the shapes in his mind
F Eb
Blackbirds and bluebirds are resting on his shoulder
Bb F
Waiting for their moment to fly
Eb Bb F
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]
F Eb
Whatever forever
Bb F
We keep our heads up high Our voices strong
F Eb
You taught me how to be keen of mind and clever
Bb F
The ways of the world, where I belong
[Verse 2]
F
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
Eb Bb F
And I know one day they’ll die
Eb Bb F
Cause I know one day you’ll die
Eb Bb F
Cause even multicolored angels die
[Chorus]
F Eb
But whatever forever
Bb F
We keep our head up high
F Eb
But whatever forever
Bb F
We keep our head up high
