[D]When the canvas [A]is no longer blank
[G]And the colors [D]have all turned grey
[A]When the desert that you're in [G]gets too cold for you to stay
[D]When it's hard to tell [A]the night from the day
[G]When your hands have lost [D]the love for the trade
[A]And the reasons for [G]work just ain't the same
[D]When you put down the money [A]is the blood worth all the pain
[G]When you can't see [D]the sunshine for the rain
[A]Livin' ain't [G]a promis
[G]Livin' ain't [D]a right
[G]And no one here [D]is getting out alive
[D]So pick up [A]all your pieces
[G]Cast the [D]doubt away
[A]Rediscover the color [G]in the grey
[D]Rediscover all the [A]color in the grey
[D]Livin ain't [A]a promise
[G]Livin ain't [D]a right
[A]No one here [G]is gettin' out alive
[D]So pick up [A]all your pieces
[G]Cast the [D]doubt away
[A]Rediscover the color [G]in the grey
[D]Rediscover all the [A]color in the grey
