Can play the riff alongside the C at the start of each line in the chorus. Sounds pretty cool.


[Intro]

C   Am   G 
C   Am   G   Am (Riff)
F   G


[Verse 1]

C                  F               G           C
Well, I tried to repress it, then I carried its crown.
                 F             G           Am
I reached out to undress it and love let me down.
(Riff)         F         G
Love let me down.


[Verse 2]

C              F               G              C
So I tried to erase it, but the ink bled right through.
                    F               G            Am
Almost drove myself crazy when these words led to you.
              Em                F
And all these useless dreams of living alone
               G
like a dogless bone.


[Chorus]

C              Am   G     C
So come let me love you,
            Am   G       Am
come let me love you and then
(Riff)     F     G
colour me in.


[Verse 3]

C                    F         G        C
Well, I tried to control it and cover it up.
                    F              G      Am
I reached out to console it. It was never enough.
(Riff)       F          G
Never enough.


[Verse 4]

C               F                   G           C
So I tried to forget it, that was all part of the show.
                  F           G         Am
Told myself I'd regret it, but what do I know
                Em                F
about all these useless dreams of living alone
               G
like a dogless bone.


[Chorus]

C              Am   G     C
So come let me love you,
            Am   G       Am
come let me love you and then
(Riff)        F    G
colour me in.

C           Am   G      C
Come let me love you,
            Am   G                Am
come let me take this through the end
             Em                 F
of all these useless dreams of living,
             G                F
in all these useless dreams
          Em                F
all these useless dreams of living
             G
in all these old noes...

   C           Am   G      C
So come let me love you,
            Am   G      C
come let me love you,
            Am   G       C
come let me love you,
           Am  G       Cx2
come let me in
