Chords
Color Song
Recorded by Jean Shepard
Written by Fred Wise, Dewey Bergman, Milton Leeds
C F C
White's for the wedding that I'll never see
G7 C
Blue is for heartaches that he gave to me
F C
Green were those two eyes that stole him away
G7 C G7 C
Gray were the darks skies on that tragic day
F C G7 C
Black was the gun that I drew from my side
D7 G7 D7 G7
Red flowed the blood as my false lover's died
C F C
Brown was the earth that they threw on his grave
G7 C G7 C
Yellow the flower that over him wave
F C
Black was the robe on the old judge that day
G7 C
White was my face when he said you must pay
F C
Blue are the tears that I shed in myself
G7 C G7 C
Red are the roses where other folks dwell
F C G7 C
Gold was my hair when they first sentenced me
D7 G7 D7 G7
It will be silver when they set me free
C F C
Gone is the rainbow that shone up above
G7 C G7 C
Life lost its color when I lost my love
G7 C G7 C
Life lost its color when I lost my love
