[Intro]
Dm Am Gm Dm Am Gm Dm
Gm Dm

[Verse 1]
Dm
Color me once, color me twice
Dm
Everything gonna turn out nice
Gm Gm
Everlasting arms, you gotta keep me from these false alarms

[Verse 2]
Dm
Alarm, alarm I see you so sad
Dm
Ring, ring I see you, I'm glad
Gm Dm
Maybe, maybe the fire of her desire

[Verse 3]
Dm
Patience, patience, said the man
Dm
Patience, patience, I can't understand
Gm
Patience like a man to a wife
Dm
I got patience on my neck like a cold, cold knife

[Verse 4]
Dm
I say Jack be nimble, Jack fall dead
Dm
Jack bend over and give Jilly head
Gm Dm
Oh, you gotta help my body heal my soul

[Guitar Solo]
Dm Gm Dm N.C.

[Verse 5]
Dm
Dead men working a sinner, a saint
Dm
Mixing up a pail of paint
Gm
Painted the house, black as night
Dm
When the sun came up, the house was white
