Am  G
You with the sad eyes
F        C
Don't be discouraged
      Am  G
Oh, I rea-lize
     F            C
It's hard to take courage
     Am            G
In a world full of people
F                  C
You can lose sight of it all
    Am             G
And darkness still inside you
         F       C   
Make you feel so small

[chors]
               F    C
But I see your true colors
G
Shining through
           F    C
I see your true colors
    G
And that's why I love you
   F          C       G
So don't be afraid to let them show
     F    C
Your true colors, 
F    C           G
True colors, are beautiful, 
       Am
Like a rainbow.

  Am G F C
(Ah ah ah...)

[verse 2]
          Am    G
Show me a smile then, 
F          C
Don't be unhappy, 
      Am       G       F           C
Can't remember when I last saw you laughing
        Am              G
If this world makes you crazy
           F             C
And you've taken all you can bear
    Am      G
You call me up
            F            C
Because you know I'll be there


[chorus]

  Am G F C
Ah ah ah ah... 

Spoken: Can't remember when I last saw you laughing

[Verse 3]

        Am              G
If this world makes you crazy
           F             C
And you've taken all you can bear
    Am      G
You call me up (call me up)
            F            C
Because you know I'll be there (know i'll be there)

[chorus]
                  F    C
And I'll see your true colors

           F    C
I see your true colors
    G
And that's why I love you
   F        C                   G
So don't be afraid (Afraid) to let them show
     F    C
Your true colors
