Am
   We painted our faces
              Em7
   we were at resting place in from the light
            G                        E 
   I must admit on that resting site
                     Am
   we looked alright


Am   
   But now it's just traces
         Em7
   As we fade in black and white
          G                        E
   We put make up on with no light
                     Am
   We're too uptight


~Chorus x2~

   F  
   Color me this way  
   Am
   Color me that way   
   Em7
   Color me inside out   
   G
   Color me upside down


[ F Am Em7 F Am G ]


~Verse~

Am
   To show my true colors
          Em7
   I must first be exposed to the light
          G                       E
   I transverse in secondly fight
                     Am
   With all my might


Am
   I've blown my cover
            Em7
   in plain view I'm as plain as you
                G             E
   But you can't deny my hues
                       Am
   Red blue chartreuse


~Chorus x2~

   F  
   Color me this way   
   Am
   Color me that way   
   Em7
   Color me inside out   
   G
   Color me upside down
