Bm               G      A      F#m   G           A
The color of the sky as far as I can see is coal grey
Bm      G             A      F#m G          A
Lift my head from the pillow and then fall again
 
(With Intro melody)
       D                       G                     A
With a shiver in my bones just thinking about the weather
 
(With Intro melody)
  D                G             A
A quiver in my lip as if I might cry
 
 
Well by the force of will my lungs are filled and so I breathe
Lately it seems this big bed is where I never leave
Shiver in my bones just thinking about the weather
Quiver in my voice as I cry
        D5       E5    A5 (A6) A5
"What a cold and rainy day.
D5                E5           A5 (A6) A5
Where on earth is the sun hid away?"
 
I hear the sound of a noon bell chime, now, I'm far behind
You've put in bout half a day while here I lie
With a shiver in my bones just thinking about the weather
A quiver in my lip as if I might cry
 
"What a cold and rainy day.
Where on earth is the sun hid away?"
 
   G-A (slide up) G-A
Do I need someone here to hold me
      G
or do I need someone who'll grab and pull me
G-A (slide)             G-A
out of this four poster dull torpor
G       Dsus2
pulling downward 
 
         D5     E5        G               A
For it's such a long time since my better days.
  D5             E5      G               A
I say my prayers nightly this will pass away
 
The color of the sky is grey as I can see through the blinds
Lift my head from the pillow and then fall again
With a shiver in my bones just thinking about the weather
A quiver in my lip as if I might cry
 
(guitar solo)
 
        D5       E5    A5 (A6) A5
"What a cold and rainy day.
D5                E5           A5 (A6) A5
Where on earth is the sun hid away?"
        D5       E5    A5 (A6) A5
"What a cold and rainy day.
  D5              E5          A5 (A6) A5
I shiver, quiver, and try to wake.
 
Dsus2
 
Transcribed by Phil Saunders, from the In My Tribe album.
This should be close, except for the F#m in the verse.
Perhaps this chord should be an A6 or a D or a F#m in fifth position?
I'm not sure which fits best.
 
Corrections welcome, as is tab for the guitar solo.
It starts in fifth position playing around with the chords.
