Intro
G A7 C G x2
Verse 1
Old Red eyes is back
Red from the night before the night before
Walked into the wrong bar walked into a door
Verse 2
Old Red's in town
And sitting late at night he doesn't make a sound
Just adding to the wrinkles on his deadly frown
Chorus
They're only red from all the tears that I should've shed
They're only red from all the women that I could've wed
So when you look into these eyes I hope you realise
They could never be blue
They could never be blue
They could never be blue
They could never be blue
Verse 3
Listen up Old Red
You never listened to a word the doctor said
He told you if you drank another you'd be dead
Verse 4
Old Red eyes is back
His shoulders ache all over and his brain is sore
He pours a drink and listens to his body thaw
Chorus
They're only red from all the thoughts unused inside my head
They're only red from all the things I could have done instead
So when you look into these eyes I hope you realise
They could never be blue
They could never be blue
They could never be blue
They could never be blue
Bridge
Blue is a street without an end
Red is the colour of my hell
Blue is a greeting from a friend
Red is the color of farewell
Chorus
Old Red he died
And every single landlord in the district cried
An empty bottle of whisky laying by his side
A lazy little tear running from each eye
They could never be blue
They could never be blue
They could never be blue
They could never be blue
