Capo 4, with the original key in B.
To make this song really sparkle like the original, pay attention to the third fret on
B string (D). The Weepies like to keep that note ringing during G, Cadd9, and D chords.

Intro:
Gray, quiet and tired and mean,
Picking at a worried seam,
I try to make you mad at me
Over the phone.
Red, eyes and fire and signs,
I’m taken by a nursery rhyme,
I want to make a ray of sunshine,
And never leave me home.
CHORUS:
No amount of coffee, no amount of crying,
No amount of whiskey, no amount of wine,
No, no, no, no, no.
Nothing else will do, I gotta have you
I gotta have you
BRIDGE:
The road gets cold,
There’s no spring in the middle this year,
And I’m the new chicken clucking open hearts and ears.
Oh, such a prima donna,
Sorry for myself.
But green, it’s also summer,
And I won’t be warm until I’m laying in your arms.
I see it all through a telescope,
Guitar, suitcase, and a warm coat,
Lying the back of a blue boat,
Humming a tune...
