Slow Fade to Blue
Elton John/Bernie Taupin
1969
F Eb
She stands in shadows
Bb F
Shadows I've walked into
Eb
Your skin's like the velvet
Bb F
Simple reflection of you
Cm D7
And you know it's true
G Am
Baby you know that I love you too much
C D G
You destroyed all the dreams that I wanted to touch
Am
Severed my life like a cut from a knife
C D G
I wanted to hold on to you
A Gm
But I guess I'm just turning
F C/E G
A slow fade to blue without you
A - Gm - F - C/E - G
F Eb
What's the good in trying
Bb F
To make her see
Eb
When the only thing I get is hurt
Bb F
With a broken heart and misery
Dm D
Hair as black as ravens in the nighttime
G Gm
Twisted by the singing wind
Eb C
Eyes that only melt my heart
F A D7
Tantalize my tears, rip my soul apart
repeat chorus
A - Gm - F - C/E - G
Bm C G
I need you baby, I want you too much
Bm C G D/F#
Burned by the flames you created in love
Em Bm C
Savior, a satan's got a hold on me
Bm C G
Torments my life and just won't let me be
F Eb Bb F
I see the visions that come from your lies
Eb Bb F
Reincarnated by the heat from your eyes
Eb
Oh, you got to stand before me
Bb F
Like it's for real
Eb Bb
I just want to touch you and your love again
F Cm
Your love again to feel
A - Gm - F - C/E - G
A Gm
I guess I'm just turning
F C/E G
A slow fade to blue without you
