PALE BLUE EYES - Lou Reed

 

[D]Sometimes I feel so happy

[G]Sometimes I feel so sad

Sometimes I feel so [Bm]happy

But [Em]mostly you just [G]make me [D]mad

[G]Baby you [A7]just make me [D]mad

 

[A7]Linger on, your pale blue [D]eyes

Linger on, your pale blue eyes

 

Thought of you as my moutain top

Thought of you as my peak

Thought of you as everything

I’ve had but couldn’t keep

I’ve had but couldn’t keep

 

Linger on ...

 

If you could make the world as pure

and strange as what I see

I’d put you in the mirror

I put in front of me

I put in front of me

 

Linger on ...

 

Skip a life completely,

stuff it in a cup

She said money is like us in time

It lies but can’t stand up

Down for you is up

Down for you is up

 

Linger on ....

 

It was good what we did yesterday

And I’d do it once again

The fact that you are married

Only proves you’re my best friend

But it’s truly, truly a sin
