I can   see you over there, starin' at your drink 
                             Am 
Watchin' that ice sink all alone tonight 
    C                                 D 
And, chances are you're sittin' here in this bar 
                      G 
'Cause he ain't gonna treat you right  
           G 
Well, it's probably not my place, but I'm gonna say it anyway 
       Am 
'Cause you look like 
   C                                     D 
You, haven't felt the fire, had a little fun, hadn't had a smile 
G 
  In a little while, baby
[Refrain]
G                    Am

Looks good on that neon buzzin' on the wall but darlin', it don't match your eyes 
            G 
I'm tellin' you 
                    Am 
You don't need that guy 
                   C                          D

Baby, blue ain't your color

          C                                 D 
But I just  I don't understand how another man 
                             G        G 
Can take your sun and turn it ice cold  
           G 
Well, I've   had enough to drink and it's makin' me think 
      Am 
That I just might,     tell you 
C                               D 
If I were painter, I wouldn't change you

I'd just paint you bright, baby
