VERSE 1:
[G#] Yester-[Fm]-day, I got [C#] lost in the [D#] circus
[G#] Feeling like [Fm] such a [C#] mess [D#]
[G#] Now I'm [Fm] down, just [C#] hanging on the [D#] corner
[G#] I can't [Fm] help but remin-[C#]-isce [D#]

CHORUS:
When you're [A#m] gone [G#] [D#], all the colors fade
When you're [A#m] gone [G#] [D#], no New Year's Day parade
You're [A#m] gone [G#] [D# open], colors seem to [G#] fade [Fm] [C#] [D#]

VERSE 2:
[G#] Your mama [Fm] called she said [C#] that you're down stairs [D#] crying
[G#] Feeling like [Fm] such a [C#] mess [D#]
[G#] Yeah I hear [Fm], you're [C#] in the background [D#] bawling
What happened [G#] to your [Fm] sweet summertime [C#] dress [D#]

BRIDGE:
[Fm] I know we [A#] all, [Fm] we all got our [A#] faults
We get [Fm] locked in our [A#] vaults and we [D# open] stay

OUTRO:
When you're [A#m] gone [G#] [D#], all the colors fade
When you're [A#m] gone [G#] [D#], no New Year's Day parade
You're [A#m] gone [G#] [D# open], colors seem to [G#] fade [Fm]
[C#] [D#] Colors seem to [G#] fade [Fm] [C#] Yeah [G# open]
