Multi-Colored Lady Chords by Gregg Allman

[Intro]
A    Asus4     A    Asus4


A          Asus4
I got on a bus in Memphis
A           Asus4     A     Asus4
Destination Rome
A                    Asus4
But Georgia ain't no paradise
A                    Asus4     A     Asus4
a place I could call home
D               A/C#           Bm7
I sat next to a broken hearted bride
        D       A/C#   Am/C       Bm7
She was cryin', tryin' so hard to hide
            A      Asus4     A      Asus4
Her selfish sorrow


[Verse]

A          Asus4
I tried to get her talkin'
A               Asus4       A     Asus4
She didn't have much to say
A              Asus4
Asked me for a map to death row
A                     Asus4     A     Asus4
But I didn't know the way
D              A/C#           Bm7
She had lost a million in the game
D               A/C#
One look out my window
       Am/C               Bm7
At the pine trees and the rain
              A        Asus4     A      Asus4
It wasn't her day

[Chorus]
E
Multicolored lady
D                         G     E/G#  A      Asus4     A     Asus4
You ain't like no rainbow I've  ever  seen
E
Multicolored lady
D          D
Angry red, passion blue
    G                A       Asus4     A     Asus4
But mostly shades of green

[Verse]
A                 Asus4
Midnight came and brought more rain
A                 Asus4     A      Asus4
Nothing seemed to ease her pain
A                 Asus4
The hours that we talked seemed like
A          Asus4         A      Asus4
Minutes all in vane
D                     A/C#              Bm7
I watched her endless tears keep runnin' wide
D                 A/C#        Am/C          Bm7
And by and by and by, and way past, after a while
        A          Asus4     A     Asus4
She sat smilin'

[Chorus]
E
Multicolored lady
D                         G     E/G#  A      Asus4     A     Asus4
You ain't like no rainbow I've  ever  known
E
Multicolored lady
D                     G              A       Asus4     A     Asus4
Come go with me, I'll take you to my home
G                             A         Asus4     A     Asus4
Oh, by the way, I'm bound for Rome

G    A
