Blue is a feminine color

Blue is deep and bold
G#           C# G#
Blue is like no other
  Cm/G            Fm
As sacred as it's old

 C#           A#m7     D#/G G#
Blue like the ocean's water
           A#sus4                D#sus4
But you're blue when it falls as rain
C#             A#m7           D#/G G#
Blue for your sons, not your daughters
A#m                        D#sus4
Blue not for pleasure but pain

Chorus:
            C#              D#
All this to say that it's okay
           G#         D#/G     Fm
No matter what life throws at you
Fm/D#  C#maj7  D#              G# C# G#
I will always love the blue in you

I don't trust rainbows (Ooh)
Made by the sun (Ooh)
For a friend of many (Ooh)
Is a friend of none (Ooh)

Coming out of nowhere (Ooh)
But quick to end (Ooh)
Like any other fair-weather friend (Ooh)

Chorus

C#
Green is pretty useful too
    D#
But not as deep and dark as blue
G#
Red like the flame that burns in you
        C#maj7
But the hottest part of it is blue

C#
Yellow beams its joyful power
     D#
But bite a lemon, it tastes sour
G#              A#m7
Why are humans cruel to you?
     C#maj7                D#
You faithful friend, you truthful blue

Chorus:
All this to say, that it's okay
No matter what life throws at you
I will always love the blue in you
