C#m
Going out each day to score
                          Em
She was no whore, but for me
C#m
Celebrating every day
                              Em
The way she thought it should be

      Bm                 Am
And I don't know what to do
                  C#m
Now that pink has turned to blue
      Bm                 Am
And I don't know what to do
                  C#m
Now that pink has turned to blue

Next verses: Same progression

She was always by my side
And never tried to leave
Standing up for me
And like a tree for what she believed

And I don't know what to do
Now that pink has turned to blue
And I don't know what to do
Now that pink has turned to blue

And I don’t know what to do
Now that pink has turned to blue
And I don’t know what to do
Now that pink has turned to blue

No more rope and too much dope
She's lying on the bed
Angels pacing, gently placing
Roses 'round her head

And I don't know what to do
Now that pink has turned to blue
And I don't know what to do
Now that pink has turned to blue
