Chords with lyrics

At the Chord diagramA minorAm chords, especially in the intro, it's nice to add a little riff on the Chord diagramG+G string:
Chord diagramG+G |-2--2-2-2-4-2-0-2--|
In the last bar of the line while you're playing the chord.
The chords are exactly the same throughout, so I only bothered to write them in
for the first couple of verses.
Enjoy!

Capo at 2

Chord diagramA minorAm
Sweep up, little sweeper boy, it's you who's got the wig on here
Chord diagramC majorC
Sweep up, little sweeper boy, sweep up
Chord diagramA minorAm
Yellow is the color of my true love's crossbow
Chord diagramD MajorD
Yellow is the color of the sun

Chord diagramA minorAm
And black is the color of a strangled rainbow
Chord diagramC majorC
That's the color of my loss
Chord diagramA minorAm
Black is the color of my true love's arrow
Chord diagramD MajorD
Just the color of human blood

You got a shot of shampoo
Though it was made thirty years ago
Yeah you still got a shot of shampoo
Though you were made twenty years ago

(Harmonica solo, same chords repeat)

Speak up, little sweeper boy, they are hard of hearing
Anything that anyone has to say
I say yellow is the color of my true love's crossbow
Yellow like the color of the sun

Well black is the color of a strangled rainbow
Just the color of my loss
Black is the color of my true love's arrow
Exactly the color of my blood

But I don't want to die I'll ever die tomorrow maybe
Above a near perfect square of sky
You are worth your weight in gold, you are worth your weight in sorrow baby
