This is the studio version. They play it a little different live, you can find the
live version here: http://www.thehenningsensfans.com/lyrics-tabs/tabs/color-red/
You can play this song several ways. I think the easiest one is with a half step down
tuned guitar. If you want to play it standart tunning click transpose -1 and play
,,, , instead of , , , and ).
If you want a easier version with a capo, click transpose -5 and play D,C, G, F#m
and Bm, and with a capo on the 4th fret :)
A blood moon of a neon sign
Youâve got no good on your mind
And I hear the color red
Saw your neighbor smiling there
In an adirondack chair
And I hear the color red
(palm mute)
I donât blame you but what heâs taken just ainât worth his life
Hallelujah, I canât let you kill a man tonight,
Cause Iâm all that you have left, and youâre standing on the edge
Of the color red
A 45 on the shotgun seat
Cold steel just needing heat
And I hear the color red
Traitorâs kiss on an innocent cheek
Stole the land from beneath your feet
And I hear the color red
(palm mute)
I donât blame you but what heâs taken just ainât worth his life
Hallelujah, I canât let you kill a man tonight,
When you think you have lost it all and you donât have far to fall,
To the color red
I hear the color red
(palm mute)
Down at the coffee shop, hear the man talking
(palm mute)
Pats you back while he is picking your pocket
I hear the color red
(palm mute)
Blood in the water, big red tractor
(palm mute)
Auctioneer chants like a bad manâs laughter
I hear the color red
And I know sometimes a brother needs a helping hand
May be a sin but Iâm sure the lord will understand
(palm mute)
Why I had to steal your gun
(palm mute)
I donât blame you but what heâs taken just ainât worth his life
Hallelujah, I canât let you go out there tonight,
Cause Iâm all that you have left, and youâre standing on the edge
Of the color red
Of the color red
Of the color red
Of the color red
