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

Wondered Wondered Wondered . . . . .
