	Em	C	G	C
	When the	morning of your eyes comes	waking through my	shadows

	Em	C	D7	G
	Leaving	just a trace of t	wilight s	leep,

	Em	C	G	C
I	whisper	to the baby raindrops	playing on my	window,

	Em	C	G	D7	G
And	tell them	gently	this is not the	time that they should	weep.

CHORUS:

	D7	G
For	somewhere in my mind there is a	painting box,

	D7	G
	I have every color there it's	true.

	D7	G
Just	lately when I look inside my	painting box,

	D7	G
I	seem to pick the colors of	you.

	Em	C	G	C
My	Friday	evening's foot-steps plodding	dully through this	black town,

	Em	C	D7	G
Are	far	away now from the	world that I'm	in.

	Em	C	G	C
My	eyes are	listening to some sounds that I	think just might be	springtime,

	Em	C	G	D7	G
With	daffo-	dils be	tween my toes I'm	laughing at their	whim,

CHORUS

	Em	C	G	C
The	purple	sail above me catches	all the strength of	summer.

	Em	C	D7	G
	Fishes s	top and ask me	where I am	bound.

	Em	C	G	C
I	smile and	shake my head and say my	little ship is	sinking,

	Em	C	G	D7	G
But I	kind of	like the	sea that I'm on, and I don't	mind if I do	drown.

CHORUS
