Lana Del Rey - Blue Banisters: chords

           G                     F
There's a picture on the wall of me
on a John Deere
       A#                              C
Jenny handed me a beer, said "How the hell
did you get there?"
G        F    A#    C
Oh, Oklahoma, mhm, hm

There were flowers that were
dry sittin' on the dresser
She asked me where they from, I said
"A place I don't remember"
Oh, Oklahoma, oh, mhm

       F                              C
Jenny jumped into the pool, she was swimmin'
with Nikki Lane
           Gm
She said "Most men don't want a woman
       A#
with a legacy, it's of age"
     F                             C
She said "You can't be a muse and be
happy too, you can't
Gm                      A#
Blacken the pages with Russian poetry
       F   C Gm A#
and be happy
        F    C  Gm A#
And that scared me,
'cause I met a man who

Chorus:
F                   C
Said he'd come back every May
 Gm             A#               F         C
Just to help me if I'd paint my banisters blue
      Gm        A#
Blue banisters, oh
 F                C
Said he'd fix my weather vane
Gm                A#
Give me children, take away my pain
              F          C
And paint my banisters blue
    Gm        A#
My banisters blue

There's a hole that's in my heart
All my women try and heal
They're doin' a good job
Convincin' me that it's not real
It's heat lightning, oh-oh-oh, oh

'Cause there's a man that's in my past
There's a man that's still right here
He's real enough to touch
In my darkest nights, he's shinin'
Ooh-ooh-ooh

Jenny was smokin' by the pool
We were writin' with Nikki Lane
I said I'm scared of the Santa Clarita Fires
I wish that it would rain
I said the power of us three
can bring absolutely anything
Except that one thing
The diamonds, the rust, and the rain
The thing that washes away the pain
But that's okay, 'cause

Chorus:
Now when weather turns to May
All my sisters come to paint my banisters green
My blue banisters grey
Tex and Mex are in the Bay
Chucky's makin' birthday cake
Chickens runnin', bare feet,
there's a baby on the way
And now my blue banisters are
green and grey, ah-ah

Summer comes, winter goes
Spring, I skip, God knows
Summer comes, winter goes
Spring, I sleep, Heaven knows
Every time it turns to May
All my sisters fly to me
To paint, paint
To paint, paint
