about

We recorded these two tracks with an iPhone while sitting around one night in Chicago.

lyrics

Bm A

Sorrow doesn’t have the wind in its sails

G Em

Sorrow doesn’t take the lead down the rails

G Em

It doesn’t have a will, and it doesn’t know the way

G Em

It doesn’t have a dozen kinds of things left to say

Bm A

True sorrow ain’t red like the blood that

G A

flows through the veins and swells up the head

Bm A D

True sorrow ain’t red, it’s blue



When sorrow befalls, it won’t fall from the mind

When sorrow’s in mind, it doesn’t care about the time

It doesn’t have to ask and it doesn’t have to know

It doesn’t have any other place for it to go

True sorrow ain’t green like the grass in the rain

Standing up to drink in the sun on its next pass

True sorrow ain’t green, it’s blue



G Bm

True sorrow won’t stab you in the back

G Bm

True sorrow won’t ever attack

G Bm

It won’t get the best of you, nor take it back from you

A D

True sorrow is blue



Sorrow doesn’t run when the pain starts to come

Sorrow doesn’t hide somewhere off to the side

It doesn’t pawn off, and it doesn’t roll off

It doesn’t skirt the issue or lie saying, “I miss you”

True sorrow ain’t yellow like the sun’s warm rays

That make you feel warm in so many way

True sorrow ain’t yellow, it’s blue



True sorrow won’t stab you in the back

True sorrow won’t ever attack

It won’t get the best of you nor take it back from you

It’s not green or orange or black or white or purple

True sorrow is



G D

Blue like the rain that falls to the earth

G D

Blue like the ocean that gives that rain birth

G D

Blue like the sky that heaven shines through

A G D

True sorrow is blue
