You Came Throwing Colors


Capo 3rd fret C You came throwing colors all around my blacks and grays. G While I stood in wonder, you just opened up my days. Am F Am Dm Let me tell you what you did to me, I wanna shout the news: Am Dm You came throwing colors 'round my blues, G7 C You came throwing colors 'round my blues. Am E7 Makes me wonder how I got the way I used to be. Am G Something in my head just simply made a mess of me. C G/B Am F Am Dm Then you told me love was possible, you told me I was free, Am G7 You came throwing colors 'round my blues.

You came throwing colors all around my blacks and grays.
While I stood in wonder, you just opened up my days.
Let me tell you what you did to me, I wanna shout the news:
You came throwing colors 'round my blues,
You came throwing colors 'round my blues.

Oh, I would sit for hours, never noticing the sky.
Chances came and went, you know I let them scurry by.
Then you told me love was possible, you made me want to try,
You came throwing colors 'round my blues.

Oh, you came throwing colors all around my blacks and grays.
While I stood in wonder, you just opened up my days.
Let me tell you what you did to me, I wanna shout the news:
You came throwing colors 'round my blues,
You came throwing colors 'round my blues.
You came throwing colors 'round my blues,
You came throwing colors 'round my blues.

(Words and music by Tom Paxton, 1972)
