Intro:

Am G F G (x2)

Verse 1:

Am
Hello, my love,
Dm Em F G
I heard a kiss from you.
Am Dm
Red magic satin playing near,
Em F G
Too.

Am
All through the morning rain I gaze,
Dm Em F G
The sun doesn't shi-ine.
Am
Rainbows and waterfalls,
Dm Em F G
Run through my mind.

Verse 2:

Am
In the garden I see,
Dm Em F G
West purple shower bells and tea.
Am
Orange birds and river cousins,
Dm Em F G
Dressed in green.

Am
Pretty music; I hear,
Dm Em F G
So happy and lo-oud.
Am
Blue flower echo,
Dm Em F G
From a cherry cloud.

Chorus 1:

F
Feel sunshine,
Sparkle pink and blue,
Playgrounds will laugh,
C
If you try to ask;
C7
Is it cool? Is it cool?

F
If you arrive and don't see me,
D7
I'm going to be,
Em Dm
With my baby; I am free.
Em Dm
Flying in her arms, over the sea.

Verse 2:

Am
Stained window yellow candy screen,
Dm Em F G
See speakers of ki-ite.
Am
With velvet roses,
Dm Em F G
Diggin' freedom flight.

Am
A present from you,
Dm Em F G
Straw-berry Letter 22.
Am
The music plays,
Dm Em F G
I sit in for a few.
