C#                         F#
I learned to swim all by myself
C#                          F#
Too young to never ask for help
     A#m          G#
From then 'til forever
          C#                 F#      G#
It's the cold that keeps me warm at night

Chorus:
           C#           F         A#m
'Cause the blue of my mother has always
        F#
been my color
    C#           F        A#m             F#
The love that I offer is deep and out of tune
        C#                  G#
But you hold me 'cause you know me
 F             A#m    F#     C#      F7       A#m F#
All that I can do is turn a lighter shade of blue

I wear my shadow like a dress
I'm not afraid of loneliness
I'm older now, it's colder out
Can I run into your arms at night?

Chorus:
'Cause the blue of my mother has
always been my color
The love that I offer is deep and out of tune
But you hold me 'cause you know me
All that I can do is turn a lighter shade of blue
A lighter shade of blue

  G#               F#
I used to hide my broken side
    F7            A#m
Now wear it on my sleeve
    F#              C#            D#m
And each day I get better, well that's what
      G#
I believe
  D#m                  G#
I hope in time you'll see

Chorus:
That the blue of my mother has
always been my color
The love that I offer is deep and out of tune
But you hold me 'cause you know me
All that I can do is turn a lighter shade of blue
A lighter shade of blue

A lighter shade of blue
