Title:
“Monochrome Rainbow”
Song Lyrics:
[Intro] G – Em – C – D
[Verse 1]
(G) Take a walk under the (Em) monochrome rainbow,
(C) Paint your fears with the (D) colors of the echo.
(G) Life’s not always (Em) vivid or mellow,
(C) Sometimes, it’s just (D) different shades of shadow.
[Chorus]
(G) Monochrome Rainbow, (D) speckled with gray,
(Em) You color my world in your (C) own special way.
(G) Under your arch, we will (D) dance and sway,
(Em) In this black and white world, (C) you make me stay.
[Verse 2]
(G) Smiling under the (Em) monochrome rainbow,
(C) Finding joy in the (D) ordinary and the shallow.
(G) The beauty lies in the (Em) unseen and the untold,
(C) In the heart of the (D) monochrome rainbow’s hold.
[Chorus]
(G)Monochrome Rainbow, (D) speckled with gray,
(Em) You color my world in your (C) own special way.
(G) Under your arch, we will (D) dance and sway,
(Em) In this black and white world, (C) you make me stay.
[Outro]
(G) Under the Monochrome (Em) Rainbow, we’ll make our stay,
(C) Painting our dreams in (D) white and gray.
