Chords
by The Zombies
Composed by Chris White / Rod Argent
This is my first chords submission. Was looking all over for this "rare" Zombies tune. It was a single and
not included on a regular album as far as I recall. I decided to put my head to it and this is what I've
come up with so far. There are a few things I'm not sure about, so maybe others will fill in the areas that
are missing. Perhaps those passing chords are wrong? The bass walk-downs, etc.? Regardless, I hope more folks
rediscover this overlooked yet beautiful song written by White and Argent. --Jeff Engel
VERSE 1
F Gm C7 F Well I have a picture in color of you F Gm C7 F And it's there in my room to remind me of you F A7 ? D D7 ? Gm So it was with surprise that I saw you today Gm7 E E7 A And I did not recognize you, girl, what more can I say?
CHORUS
F Bb Bb/A Bb/G For the colors are gone Gm F Am/E D You've become kind of gray D7 Bb Bb/A Bb/G And you're not like the swan Gm F That I knew yesterday... F Bb Bb/A Bb/G Now the pictures are wrong Gm F Am/E D You've become kind of gray D7 Bb Bb/A Bb/G I imagine the swan Gm F That you were yesterday...
VERSE 2
F Gm C7 F The sadness that I felt was hard on my eyes F Gm C7 F And the truth on my face was hard to disguise F A7 ? D D7 ? Gm So I let you walk by I turned out of your way Gm7 E E7 A And I tried to close my eyes And let the sadness fall away...
REPEAT CHORUS
