CHORUS: D9 G For somewhere in my mind there is a painting box, D9 G I have every color there it's true. D9 G Just lately when I look inside my painting box, D9 G (C) G I seem to pick the colors of you. Em C Am G C My Friday evening's foot-steps plodding dully through this black town, Em C Am G (C) G Are far away now from the world that I'm in. Em C Am G C My eyes are listening to some sounds that I think just might be springtime, Em C G D G With daffo-dils between my toes I'm laughing at their whim, CHORUS Em C Am G C The purple sail above me catches all the strength of summer. Em C Am G (C) G Fishes stop and ask me where I am bound. Em C Am G C I smile and shake my head and say my little ship is sinking, Em C G D G But I kind of like the sea that I'm on, and I don't mind if I do drown.
