Intro - D - Bm - G - F#m
(verse 1)
I used to see in[D] black and white,
Never something [Bm]in between,
Waitin' on the l[G]ove of my life,
To come i[F#m]nto my dreams,
(verse 2)
Everything in[D] shades of grey,
Never any[Bm] blues or greens,
I needed[Em7] someone else to turn to,
[F#m]Someone who could help me learn to [Bm]see,
All the [A]beauty that was waiting for me,
(chorus)
[D]You, you put the blue back in the [Bm]sky,
You put the rainbow in my [Em7]eyes,
The silver lining in my pr[G]ayers,
And now there's c[A]olour everywhe[Bm]re,
You put the red back in the[A] rose,
Just when I needed it the m[Bm]ost,
You came along to show you c[G]are,
And now there's co[A]lour everywhe[D]re[-],[Bm]
(verse 3)
My life was so predictable,
Never any mystery,
But ever since you shined the light,
All of that is history,
(verse 4)
Now I have a hand to hold,
And a reason to believe,
There's someone in my life worth living for,
I was hanging 'round just wishin' on a star,
To put the happiness back in my heart and,
(chorus)
[D]You, you put the blue back in the [Bm]sky,
You put the rainbow in my [Em7]eyes,
The silver lining in my pr[G]ayers,
And now there's c[A]olour everywhe[Bm]re,
You put the red back in the[A] rose,
Just when I needed it the m[Bm]ost,
You came along to show you c[G]are,
And now there's co[A]lour everywhere[G],
(bridge)
[G]I left those [D]hazy days behind[Em7] me,
Never to return aga[D-G]in,
[G]Now they're [Em7]just a faded mem[Bm]ory,
'Cause b[B]aby it's all so clear to see,
The b[B]eauty that was waiting for me,
(chorus)
[E]You, you put the blue back in the [C#m]sky,
You put the rainbow in my [F#m]eyes,
The silver lining in my pr[A]ayers,
And now there's c[B]olour everywh[C#m]ere,
You put the red back in the[B] rose,
Just when I needed it the m[F#m]ost,
You came along to show you c[A]are,
And now there's co[B]lour everywhe[C#m]re,
You ca[F#]re and now there's co[F#m]lour everywh[E]er[-]e,[Em][-A]
There's co[B]lour everywhere[E],[-][C#m][-][F#]
There's c[B7add11]olour everywhere[E]
