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