Lyrics

[Intro]
| +  + C  Cmaj9/B | Am -    Em - | - - G -       | C - - - |
| Am - Em -       | -  G/F# G  - | C - - Cmaj9/B |

[Verse 1]
Am       Em         G/F#  G   C
Orange is  the color    of my love
D              G           C     Cmaj9/B
Fragile orange wind in the garden
Am      Em          G/F#    G        C
Fragile means that I    can hear her flesh
D             G             C      Cmaj9/B
Crying little rivers in her forearm
Am        Em      G/F#     G   C
Fragile is  that I    mourn her death
D                Em              C
As our limbs are twisting in her bedroom

[Chorus]
Am          Bmadd11 Am
Lies, lies, lies   
D           Em  C
Lies in her eyes
Am          Bmadd11 Am
Lies, lies, lies   
Bmadd11       C   Em G/F# G C Cmaj9/B
Lies   in her eyes

[Verse 2]
Am        Em         G/F#    G        C
She tells me to close    and count to ten
D              G                  C     Cmaj9/B
As she wanders freely through the forest
Am         Em     G/F# G    C
Can I close  and open once again?
D                   Em           C
The question that I seek for reassurance

[Chorus]
Am          Bmadd11 Am
Lies, lies, lies   
D           Em  C
Lies in her eyes
Am          Bmadd11 Am
Lies, lies, lies   
Bmadd11       C   Em G/F# G
Lies   in her eyes

[Verse 3]
Am        Em           G/F#     G C
Hound dogs  crowing at the stars above
D                 G                 C     Cmaj9/B
Pigeons fall like snowflakes at the border
Am         Em            G/F#    G     C
She kneels down and holds    the frozen dove
    D               Em             C
The moon drips like water from her shoulder

[Chorus]
Am            Bmadd11 Am
Flies, flies, flies  
D              Em  C
Flies from her eyes
Am            Bmadd11 Am
Flies, flies, flies  
Bmadd11         C   Em G/F# G C Cmaj9/B
Flies  from her eyes

[Outro]
Am       Em         G/F#  G   C
Orange is  the color    of my love
D              G           C     Cmaj9/B
Fragile orange wind in the garden
Am      Em          G/F#    G        C
Fragile means that I    can hear her flesh
D             G             C      Cmaj9/B
Crying little rivers in her forearm
Am        Em      G/F#     G   C
Fragile is  that I    mourn her death
D                Em              C
As our limbs are twisting in her bedroom
