verse:
                A
When you walked out of my life
          E
I didn't think that I'd survive
A                                                E
Hope was growing dimmer day by day
           A
Oh but much to my surprise 
   E                  C#m
 I made it out a-live
            E                     B7               E
And my world is looking anything but gray

chorus:
                 A                   E
I came thro-ugh with flying colors
                         A                                E
A little black and blue from the wear and tear
                A                  
When love got the best of me
            E                       C#m
I turned green with jealou-sy
                F#7                                                B      Bb  B
When you made it crystal clear that you did not care
           E    A                   E
I came thro-ugh with flying colors
                   A                                           E
My eyes are red from crying the whole night through
            A                 
I should win the purple heart
                E                   C#m
Cause you tore mine all a-part
                 F#7                     B7             A    A   E
But I came through with flying colors after los-ing you

verse 2:

Yes I've got a yellow streek
Cause I know the flesh is weak
And I still get pale whenever you're in sight
I'm a shade out of my mind 
Oh but I'm not color blind 
Cause I've learned that love ain't only black and white

chorus repeat

tag: Oh I should win the purple heart
       Cause you tore mine all apart
       But I came through with flying colors after losing you
