Sam Bush - Song For Roy

      [Intro]
Em G D Em

[Verse]
Em          G                 D
Mirror image of his father before him
                            Em
The notes flow through his veins
Em           G                        D
Bottom so big, you can still hear a thunder
               Em
From the Opry stage

[Verse]
Em                     G                      D
Worked his first master when he was just sixteen
                     Em
The boy could slap a Kay
Em                  G                        D
King Edward Specials on his lip and in his pocket
                    Em
He smoked it every day

[Chorus]
C              D  C           D
   Hear the colors, wrapped in flannel
C               D      Em
   Forever wedged in my mind
C              D  C             D
   Hear the colors, no he ain't crazy
C               D                 Em
   Just run the number, here's the time

[Interlude]
Em G D

[Verse]
Em               G
He was a brother, husband and father
   D                                 Em
A damn good man, a rambler and a friend
Em                      G                        D
So here's a song just to say farewell, rest in peace
                Em
Until we pick again

[Chorus]
C              D  C           D
   Hear the colors, wrapped in flannel
C               D      Em
   Forever wedged in my mind
C              D  C             D
   Hear the colors, no he ain't crazy
C               D                 Em
   Just run the number, here's the time

[Bridge]
Em G D
Oooh
Em G D
Oooh
Em G D
Oooh
Em G D
Oooh

[Chorus]
C              D  C           D
   Hear the colors, wrapped in flannel
C               D      Em
   Forever wedged in my mind
C              D  C             D
   Hear the colors, no he ain't crazy
C               D                 Em
   Just run the number, here's the time
C               D                 Em
   Just run the number, here's the time
C               D                 Em
   Just run the number, here's the time

[Outro]
Em G D Em
Oooh
