Gm D F#m
You colour me in gold
Gm D F#m
Lips like Petals on my throat
Gm D
And those fingertips like paintbrush strokes
C
paper boats
Bm
softly float
A
like a song we wrote
Bm D
But summer comes and summer goes
Gm D F#m
You changed you hair you change your clothes
Bm D
The books you read help you explore
A C A
the world that you believed in
Em D F#m
once before
Gm D F#m
You colour me in gold
Gm D F#m
Kiss the freckles on my nose
Em D
With those blood red pomegranate lips
C
taking sips
Bm
hand on hip
A
Your face could launch a thousand ships
Bm D F#m
But winter comes and brings the snow
Gm D F#m
You change your job you change your home
Bm Bb
still reading books about the ghost of a world
C
you can't be living
Em
anymore
Em D Gm
And after all you've been nothing but good to me
Bm F#m A Em D
And the only way I can pay you back is to daily seek
A D Gm
those distant memories
Bm A
while I'm standing next to you
Bm D F#m
So when spring time comes and blossoms grow
Bm
Come take my hand
D F#m
can we expose
Bm
the hideaways
Bm Bb
the hidden doors
C
the stories we believed in
Bb
oohh ooooh
C
The land we both both dreamed in
D A F#m
once before
Em D F#m Em D F#m Em
oooh ooooh oho ohhh ohh OOh ooh ooh oooohhh ooh oohhh ohh oh
Gm D F#m
You colour me in gold
