This song is better strummed using your hand/thumb. Very easy and sincere tune.
Capo on the 4th fret.
Intro: C
C
The clouds are here
F G C
They aren't up in the sky.
C F
I cupped them with my hands
G C
and reached up high.
C
I said to these clouds,
F G C
"no more am I blind.
C F
I have to see straight
G C
and that will make me unkind."

G C
Visions of blue,
G C
I'm angry, I'm wise.
F C
And you, you're under cloudy skies.
Blue air I crave, blue air I breathe
They once chopped my heart the way you chop a tree.
Told to equate achievement with pain
I took their top prize and paid them back with rain.
Visions of blue
I'm angry I'm wise and you.
You're under cloudy skies.
Blue air I crave blue air I breathe
they once chopped my heart the way you chop a tree.
Told to equate Achievement with Pain
I stole their top prize and paid them back with rain.
Visions of blue I'm angry I'm wise and you.
You're under cloudy skies. Visions of blue
Preverse and strong and you.
You're under cloudy skies.
What I did once I now do everyday.
