Verse: 1
C                            F         Am
I am the colour of an autumn flurry of leaves in a breeze for you
    Dm              Am                   G                F
And I am a study in hues of grey and the blue of a broken day for you
C                               F           Am
Oh the hurry, the press of your body in the embers of an afternoon
      Dm                Am                G                     Dm            G
Now I spend my money on something stupid, trying to believe I belong to you



G                                C               F
Oh when the colours go, when the colours go they won't come back
    C              G                            C               F
You strip me right, you strip them right out so maybe you would welcome that
    C       G                                       C            F
And I don't know where your colours go, but if your colours go I won't come back
  C          F         Em                      G
I won't come back, but maybe you would welcome that

Interlude: C  |  |  F  Am  |  |  F  C  |  |  F  Am  |  |  |


Verse: 2
C                        F               Am
Oh we linger in the cold comfort of each other in your bedroom
    Dm                   Am                  G                       Dm
And we are the colour of something borrowed, trying to believe we're something new


    G                                C               F
And oh when the colours go, when the colours go they won't come back
    C              G                            C               F
You strip me right, you strip them right out so maybe you would welcome that
    C       G                                         C            F
And I don't know where your colours go, but when your colours go I won't come back
    C              G                          C               F
You strip me right, you strip me right out so maybe you would welcome that
  C          F         Em                      G
I won't come back, but maybe you would welcome that


Bridge
Bb            Am          C             F   F/E
  And in this garden we were barely kept
Bb         Am             D        D
  So maybe more should be less
F            Em      Am            D       C        C
  We're only antique blooms, on an unmade bed


    G                                  C            F
And oh when your colours go, when your colours go I won't come back
    C              G                            C               F
You strip me right, you strip them right out so maybe you would welcome that
    C       G                                         C               F
And I don't know where your colours go, but when your colours go they won't come back
    C              G                          C               F
You strip me right, you strip me right out so maybe you would welcome that
    C       G                                         C               F
And I don't know where your colours go, but when your colours go they won't come back
     C          F         Em                      G
They don't come back, and maybe you would welcome that
