BADFINGER
CRIMSON SHIP
EVANS/HAM
F# C# D#m C#
My life was coloured, painting pictures out of tune
F# C# D#
You came from nowhere in a song
F# C# D#m C#
It might have been the way I laughed, he made the jokes
F# C# D#
Could only show me what was wrong
G# C#
He took me flying on his crimson ship
D# F# C#
He never left me his number
G# C#
He took me flying on his crimson ship
D# F# C# D#
Then he was gone and I wondered
F# C# D#m C#
Who put the knots on all the crosses on the hill?
F# C# D#
Why did the old man wash his hands?
F# C# D#m C#
Who grew the flower that was big enough to kill?
F# C# D#
And blew the trumpet in the van, a-an
G# C#
He took me flying on his crimson ship
D# F# C#
He never left me his number
G# C#
He took me flying on his crimson ship
D# F# C# D#
Then he was gone and I wondered
F# C# G# D#
Oh-oh, oh-oh
F# C# D#m C#
When they were busy throwing kisses at the moon
F# C# D#
F# father lost his mother's son
F# C# D#m C#
And though they knew the resurrection would be soon
F# C# D#
The time was spent, they carried on, o-on
G# C#
He took me flying on his crimson ship
D# F# C#
He never left me his number
G# C#
He took me flying on his crimson ship
D# F# C# D# G#
Then he was gone and I wondered
D#
Wondered Wondered Wondered . . . . .
