Dm                A#
My baby lives in shades of blue
     Bm       A#       Dm
Blue eyes and jazz and attitude
    Dm          A#
He lives in California too
    Bm       A#    Dm
He drives a Chevy Malibu
             G                   Gm
And when he calls, he calls for me,
            Dm
and not for you
              G                  Gm
He lives for love, he loves his drugs,
                  Dm
he loves his baby too

            A#
But I can't fix him,
                C
can't make him better
            A#                             C
And I can't do nothing about this strange weather

Chorus:
    F         Cm
But you are unfixable
A#              C
I can't break through your world
       F           Cm
Cause you live in shades of cool
A#                C
Your heart is unbreakable

My baby lives in shades of cool
Cold heart and hands and aptitude
He lives for love, for women, too
I'm one of many, Bonnie's blue
And when he calls,
he calls for me and not for you
He prays for love,
he prays for peace, and maybe someone new

But I can't help him,
can't make him better
And I can't do nothing about his strange weather

Chorus - x2
