    Life has changed since you've been there to say it's alright,

       F             Am      Dm                    C                          Am

    you taught me to understand what I thought couldn't be.

    Don't mind missing sleep if I can see.

 

  C                    F  - Am     G                        C

Colours of my life,          you've got love to fill my heart,

I don't need a rainbow with colours of my life, colours of my life.

    Now my eyes are looking past the life that I knew,

     F           Am       Dm                      C                        Am

    I'll be shedding black and gray to take on red and blue,

      Em                D                           G    - G7

    colours I can feel, like touching you.

 

  C                    F   - Am    G                        C

Colours of my life          bloom like flowers in my heart,

  C                       Dm          F

loving you has shown me colours of my life, colours of my life.
