Orange Colored Sky - Nat Kng Cole and others


q

[Verse 1]
A         E7    A       Edim   D9         Fdim E7
I was walking along, minding my business, 
      A        Cdim           F#7
When out of an orange-colored sky, 
Dalt  Cdim(IV) A    F#7  D          E7      A  E7
Flash!  Bam!   Alakazam! Wonderful you came by. 
      A         Edim   D9         Fdim   E7
I was humming a tune, drinking in sun - shine, 
      A           Cdim           F#7
When out of that orange-colored view, 
Dalt  Cdim(IV) A    F#7  D        E7      A
Wham!   Bam!   Alakazam! I got a look at you. 
 
[Bridge]
D6          Cdim       F7      A             C#7    F#7
One look and I yelled "Timber! Watch out for flying glass!" 
           B7                      Cdim
'Cause the ceiling fell in and the bottom fell out, 
       B7                 Cdim
I went into a spin, and I started to shout, 
           E7          Bm7/5-        E7
"I've been hit, this is it, this is it!" 
 
[Verse 2]
       A       Edim   D9       Fdim   E7
I was walking along, minding my business, 
      A           Cdim           F#7
When love came and hit me in the eye 
Dalt  Cdim(IV) A    F#7  D         E7             A
Flash!  Bam!   Alakazam! out of an orange-colored sky.
