[I found this was easiest for me when I kept finger 3 on my e string - but I am still 
and the finger positioning still felt a little awkward for me in the end]


Verse 1: (begin with strumming the guitar)

             Am    C
You with the sad eyes
 Em           F
don't be discouraged
     Am  C
oh I realize
        F        G
it's hard to take courage (you can pick it up here)
      Am            C
in a world full of people
    Em                F
you can lose sight of it all
Am                C
and the darkness inside you
    F                   G
can make you feel so small


Chorus:
                F      C
But I see your true colors
    G
shining through
            F     C
I see your true colors
      F           G
and that's why I love you
    Am         C      Em       F
so don't be afraid to let them show
      Am   C
your true colors
Am    C           G (strum once)
true colors are beautiful


like a rainbow....

Verse 2:
           Am    C
Show me a smile then
Em         F                 Am
don't be unhappy, can't remember
   C    F             G
when I last saw you laughing
    Am                   C
if this world makes you crazy
            Em                F
and you've taken all you can bear
    Am      C
you call me up
            F             G
because you know I'll be there

Chorus:
                F      C
But I see your true colors
    G
shining through
            F     C
I see your true colors
      F           G
and that's why I love you
    Am         C       G       F
so don't be afraid to let them show
      Am   C
your true colors
Am    C           G (strum once)
true colors are beautiful

like a rainbow....
