                          "Rose Coloured Glasses"

                               (Scott McCarl)

  

  Intro (piano):

  

  	C     C G    C     C G   Bb    Bb F    G    /F#

  	/  /  /  /   /  /  /  /   /  /  /  /   /  /  /  /

  

  Verse 1:

  

  	        Em       Gmaj7/D  [r.h. keyboard voicing: D-F#-G-B]

  	I'm an ivory tower boy

  	        C                G/B 

  	Never quite put down the toys

  	  Am7              D7           G   Gsus2/F#  [r.h: D-G-A]

  	I always made the best of them all

  	       Em       Gmaj7/D

  	I see only sunny skies

  	          C            G

  	With the wool over my eyes

  	        Am7               D7   /C      B7

  	I never seem to find the crack or the fault

  

  Chorus:

  

  	   C                  D              G      A

  	I see it all through rose-coloured glasses

  	            D                  G   G7/B

  	And I only see what matters to me

  	   C                   D                B7    E7

  	I see you all through rose-coloured glasses, yeah

  	                  Am7   D7

  	The world that I chose

  	                C/G  G

  	Is coloured [1: rose   ]

  	                C/G  G /F#

  		    [2: rose       (to solo)]

  	            [3: (to coda)]

  Verse 2:

  

  	It's a funny sort of haze

  	All full of dreams of yesterdays

  	And the dreams are so real you could cry

  	And you know the grass is green

  	On the side you've never seen

  	And the thought is what helps you get by

  

  [repeat chorus]

  

  Guitar solo [2X]:

  

  	Gm/Bb     F/A     Fm/Ab     C/G

  	  / / / /  / / / /  / / / /  / / / /

  

  	Gm/Bb     F/A     Fm/Ab      C   CG

  	  / / / /  / / / /  / / / /  / / / /

  

  Verse 3:

  

  	As I grow a little more

  	And wonder what this all is for

  	And the brass ring is slipping away

  	I will keep the glasses near

  	Maybe shed a quiet tear

  	Maybe smile inside as I say

  

  [repeat chorus]

  

  [repeat guitar solo; end cold on G]
