Default 1969 paint schemes

Hi, it's my first time here. I am restoring a 1969 Electra-Glide that I have owned for 33 years. When I was young and foolish, I chromed everything I could, and have repainted the bike serveral times. Does anyone out know what colors / paint schemes Harley offered that year?
Thank you in advance foryour help,
Moelarri[8D]
