Standard (EADGBE)

Intro

  The show is over, close the storybook

  There will be no encore

  And all the random hands that I have shook, well they're

  Reaching for the door

  I watch their backs as they leave single file

  You stood stubborn, cheering all the while

Chorus

  I know I can be colorful

  I know I can be grey

  And I know this loser's living fortunate

F G ( Band in )

'Cause I know you will love me either way

Verse 2

Most were being good for goodness sake, but you

Wouldn't pantomime

You are more beautifull when you awake

Than most are in a lifetime

Through the haze that is my memory, well

You stayed for drama, though you paid for a comedy

Chorus

  I know I can be colorful

  I know I can be grey

  And I know this loser's living fortunate

  And I know you will love me either way

String solo

  Look ahead as far as you can see

  We'll live in drama, but we'll die in a comedy

  I know I can be colorful

  I know I can be grey

  And I know this loser's living fortunate

  And I know you will love me either way

  I know I can be colorful

  I know I can be grey

  And I know this loser's living fortunate

  And I know you will love me

  And I know you will love me

  And I know you will love me either way
