    Candy Says - The Velvet Underground

    Uploaded by

    The song is about a person named Candy who expresses dissatisfaction with her body and desires to understand what others secretly discuss. In the chorus, Candy wonders what she would see if she could distance herself from her current perspective. The second verse finds Candy disliking quiet places and big decisions that cause overthinking. The chorus is repeated with Candy continuing to question what she would observe from a removed viewpoint. The song closes with repeating instrumental phrases.

    I’m gonna watch the blue birds fly,
    A
    over my shoulder.
    D G E
    I’m gonna watch them pass me by,
    A
    maybe when I’m older.
    C G
    What do you think I’d see,
    A C
    if I could walk away from me? (4 bts pause)

    D F#m F B
    Candy says, I hate the quite places,
    Em A D A

    Candy says, I hate the big descisions,
    Em A D A
    that cause endless revisions in my mind.

    I’m gonna watch the blue birds fly,

    (E) B C#m
    And through it all she offers me protection, a
    A
    lot of love and affection, whether I’m right or
    E
    wrong.
    B
    And down the waterfall wherever it may take
    C#m A
    me, I know that life won’t break me.
    G#m F#m
    When I come to call, she won’t forsake me.
    D A E
    I’m loving angels instead.
