G D/F#
I am the red in the rose, the flowers
Em C9
on the blankets on your bedroom floor.
G D/F#
And I am the gray in the ghost that hides
Em C9
with your clothes behind your closet door.
G D/F#
I am the green in the grass that bends back
Em C9
from underneath your feet.
G D/F#
And I am the blue in your back alley view
Em C9
where the horizon and the rooftops meet.
C9 G Em
If you cut me I suppose I would bleed
C9 G D/F#
the colors of the evening stars.

when we are lost in the technicolor phase)

I am the black in the book
Em C9
the letters on the pages that you memorize.

And I am the orange in the overcast
Em C9
of color that you visualize.

I am the white in the walls that soak up
Em C9
all the sound when you cannot sleep.
G D/F#
And I am the peach in the starfish on the beach
Em C9
that wish the harbor wasn't quite so deep.
C9 G Em
If you cut me I suppose I would bleed
C9 G D/F#
the colors of the evening stars.

You can go anywhere you wish cause I'll be there, wherever you are.
