Welcome to the sixth in the series of Challenges.
Between October 1962 and May 1970, The Beatles released 24 singles, 13 EPs, 13 Albums, with a total of 293 tracks.
COLOUR IN LYRICS CHALLENGE
Below is an alphabetical list of colour-related words which appear in officially released Beatles songs.
The Challenge is to find which word appears in which song, or songs.
Hints/clues:
Some words appear in more than one song. In such cases, the number of songs in which the word is in is shown in [x].
Some songs contain more than one of the words on the list. In these cases, you need to find each word and post each answer in a separate post.
Note: you are not looking for other colour-related words which may be in the lyrics of Beatles` songs but those in the list. Should you find any of the words in songs not on my list, as in the previous Challenges, I will re-check my sources and give my verdict with an explanation as to my decision
No "live" recording; BBC sessions; Polydor records; bootlegs; unreleased tracks.
Rules:
Please, no googling, wiki, social media, iplayer, youtube, personal record collection [e.g. album sleeves] in search of the answers. Of course, listening to songs is permitted.
You may submit one answer for one word in one song per post - not two or more songs where the same word appears - and can only post one answer per day.
Each entry should be submitted as [colour-related word] in [name of song it appreas in].
This Challenge will open at 11pm tomorrow [Monday 13 May] when you can submit your first answer up to 11pm Tuesday, when the first results will be announced.
On each subsequent day/night, answers can be submitted after midnight until 11pm.
The list of colour-related words is given in the next post.
Good luck.

RESULTS for answer submitted for Tuesday 14 May 2019:
Six players - @Cleoriff ; @Glory1 ; @pgn ; @MI5 ; @Bambino ; @jonsie - all submitted correct answers.
CLEAR = I`m Looking Through You - @Cleoriff
OPAQUE = Think For Yourself - @Glory1
TANGERINE = Savoy Truffle - @pgn
TANGERINE = Lucy In The Sky With Diamonds @MI5
MULTI-COLOURED = Happiness Is A Warm Gun - @Bambino
BLUE = There`s A Place - @jonsie
I said, at the end of the last Challenge, there have been, and no doubt will be in future Challenges, answers found, in which I have missed one of the words in a song.
Although this is only the first night in which answers have been submitted, @Cleoriff has found "clear" in I`m Looking Through You, which is not on my list. Therefore, there is still one "clear" to find.
Also I said I had made a few minor changes to the original planned list for this Challenge. I am pleased to say that @Bambino found the hardest answer - "multi-coloured" in Happiness IS A Warm Gun - in the original planned list.
Whilst listening to, and going through the lyrics for the revised list of answers, by chance, I came across what I considered to be the hardest answer to find in the revised list. I am pleased to say that @Glory1 has found this answer - "opaque" in Think For Yourself.
There may, of course, be other answers which are not on my list. Should that be the case, I will check the lyrics in my sources [not online websites/google/wiki] and give my decision.
The list of words and number of answers still to find is on a separate post below.
You can submit your next answer after midnight and up to 11pm tomorrow [Wednesday].
Good luck
