Lyrics:

Sally Blue, she
Up and left me;
She couldn't stand to live in poverty
So I painted a self-portrait in 50 shades of blue
And in this moment of weakness
I'm showing it to you

Maybe I'm wrong and maybe she's right;
I see things in shades of blue
She sees things in black and white

She told me once, and she told me twice;
I never listened to her advice
Now I'm payin' a heavy price

I've been blessed with some bright ideas
So bright I thought that they were heaven-sent
But now I'm 6 months in arrears
Divine inspiration sure don't pay the rent

Maybe I'm wrong and maybe she's right;
I see things in shades of blue
She sees things in black and white

She told me once and she told me twice;
I never listen to her advice
Now I'm payin' a heavy price

Sally, do you think that we could start anew?
It's getting mighty lonesome without you

Well, she told me once and she told me twice;
I never listen to her advice
Now I'm payin' a heavy price

So I'm wrong, just maybe she's right;
I see things in shades of blue
She sees thing in black and white

Fifty
Fifty shades of blue

Oh, yeah!

Fifty
Fifty shades of blue

Yeah!

Fifty
Fifty shades of blue
