A
When you walked out of my life
E
I didn't think that I'd survive

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

ending: (use intro tab, stop on the "rest")
