C5            Bb5
In the tiny piece of coloured glass 
             C5
my love was born 
                         Bb5
and reds and golds and yellow 
                         C5
were the colours in the dawn. 
                               Bb5
Night brought on its pur-ple cloak 
                 G5
of velvet to the sky 
          C5
and the girls go willing
  Bb5                 C5
