VERSE 1:
       D7           D9     G6 (RIFF)
When I think back on all the crap I learned in high school
Em         A7       D   Em
   It's a wonder I can think at all
A7      D    DM7  D7      G6 (RIFF)
And though my lack of edu - cation hasn't hurt me none
Em         A7       D   D7
   I can read the writing on the wall


CHORUS:
  G    B7 E           Am     D7
Kodachrome     They give us those nice bright colours
         G     C
They give us the greens of summers
        A7   D7       G  B7 E
Makes you think all the worlds a sunny day oh yeah
    Am  D            G  C
I got a Nikon camera. I love to take a photograph
       A7   D7      G / / / | Bm / / / | Em / / / | A7 /
So mama don't take my Kodachrome away


VERSE 2:
      D    DM7  D7 D9       G6 (RIFF)
If you took all the girls I knew when I was single
Em             A7       D   Em
   And brought them all together for one night.
A7      D   DM7   D7     G6 (RIFF)
I know they'd never match my sweet imagination
Em            A7         D   D7
   And everything looks worse in black and white


CHORUS:
  G    B7 E           Am     D7
Kodachrome     They give us those nice bright colours
         G     C
They give us the greens of summers
        A7   D7       G  B7 E
Makes you think all the worlds a sunny day oh yeah
    Am  D            G  C
I got a Nikon camera. I love to take a photograph
       A7   D7      G / / / | Bm / / / | Em / / / | / / / / |
So mama don't take my Kodachrome away
