Old Red Eyes Is Back

G chordG
Old Red eyes is back
A7 chordA7 C chordC G chordG
Red from the night before the night before
G chordG A7 chordA7 C chordC G chordG
Walked into the wrong bar walked into a door

G chordG
Old Red's in town

A7 chordA7 C chordC G chordG
And sitting late at night he doesn't make a sound
G chordG A7 chordA7 C chordC G chordG
Just adding to the wrinkles on his deadly frown

G chordG A7 chordA7 C chordC G chordG
They're only red from all the tears that I should've shed
G chordG A7 chordA7 C chordC G chordG
They're only red from all the women that I could've wed
G chordG A7 chordA7 C chordC G chordG
So when you look into these eyes I hope you realise


G chordG
They could never be blue
A7 chordA7 C chordC
They could never be blue
G chordG G chordG
They could never be blue
A7 chordA7 C chordC G chordG
They could never be blue

G chordG
Listen up Old Red

A7 chordA7 C chordC G chordG
You never listened to a word the doctor said
G chordG A7 chordA7 C chordC G chordG
He told you if you drank another you'd be dead

G chordG
Old Red eyes is back

A7 chordA7 C chordC G chordG
His shoulders ache all over and his brain is sore
G chordG A7 chordA7 C chordC G chordG
He pours a drink and listens to his body thaw
G chordG A7 chordA7 C chordC G chordG
They're only red from all the thoughts unused inside my head
G chordG A7 chordA7 C chordC G chordG
They're only red from all the things I could have done instead
G chordG A7 chordA7 C chordC G chordG
So when you look into these eyes I hope you realise

G chordG
They could never be blue
A7 chordA7 C chordC
They could never be blue
G chordG G chordG
They could never be blue
A7 chordA7 C chordC G chordG
They could never be blue

G chordG A7 chordA7 C chordC G/B chordG/B
Blue is a street without an end
G chordG A7 chordA7 C chordC G/B chordG/B
Red is the colour of my hell
G/D chordG/D A7 chordA7 C chordC G/B chordG/B
Blue is a greeting from a friend
G/D chordG/D A7 chordA7 C chordC G chordG
Red is the colour of farewell

G chordG
Old Red he died

A7 chordA7 C chordC G chordG
And every single landlord in the district cried
G chordG A7 chordA7 C chordC G chordG
An empty bottle of whisky laying by his side
G chordG A7 chordA7 C chordC G chordG
A chordA lazy little tear running from each eye

G chordG
They could never be blue
A7 chordA7 C chordC
They could never be blue
G chordG G chordG
They could never be blue
A7 chordA7 C chordC G chordG
They could never be blue
