Its all over now baby blue.

B7
You must leave now
A E
Take what you need, you think will last
B7 A E
But whatever you wish to keep, you better grab it fast.
F#m A E
Yonder stands your orphan, with his gun
F#m A E
Crying like a fire in the sun.
G#7 A B7
Look out the saints are comin' through
F#m A E
And it's all over now, baby blue.
B7 A E
The highway is for gamblers, better use your sins
B7 A E
Take what you have gathered from coincidence
F#m A E
The empty-handed painter from your streets
F#m A E
Is drawing crazy patterns on your sheets
G#7 A B7
This sky too, is folding under you
F#m A E
And it's all over now, baby blue.
B7 A E
All your seasick sailors, they are rowing home
B7 A E
All your reindeer armies, are all going home
F#m A E
The lover who just walked out your door
F#m A E
Has taken all his blankets from the floor
G#7 A B7
The carpet too, is moving under you
F#m A E
And it's all over now, baby blue.
B7 A E
Leave your stepping stones behind, someone calls for you
B7 A E
Forget the dead you've left, they will not follow you
F#m A E
The vagabond who's rapping at your door
F#m A E
Is standing in the clothes that you once wore
G#7 A B7
Strike another match, go start anew
F#m A E
And it's all over now, baby blue.
F#m A E
And it's all over now, baby blue.
