Rainbows Chords

[Intro]
G
    G
The day you were born was 

the best day of your life
     G
From there, you learned to smile 

through pain and say “it’s a good day,”
                            Em  G
even if that meant you were lying
                                  Em     G
You’ve been lying every day for a long time
                                        Em     G
You've been painting your possessions a deeper shade of blue
                         Em     G
Because that's what your mother and your father asked of you
 
[Chorus]
                     C
Well they don't like rainbows, do they
                Am
They don't like rainbows, do they
                    Em
And they don't like snowflakes, either
            C
Give them a snowstorm, darling
 
[Riff]
   Em  G
Yeah
Em  G
 
[Verse 2]
Em               G
  You asked your mother what those words meant to her
Em          G
  She never said them, but you knew she meant them
Em           G
  She didn’t have tell you, you’re her liability
Em              G
  You heard her telling her work friends
Em             G
  You tried to be the boy she wished that you were
Em             G
  You cut your hair for her, you burnt that dress for her
Em            G
  You painted every wall the deepest shade of blue
     Em         G
They covered up the rainbow but they still couldn’t hide you
 
[Chorus]
                     C
Well they don't like rainbows, do they
                Am
They don't like rainbows, do they
                    Em
And they don't like snowflakes, either
            C
Give them a snowstorm darling
 
[Post-Chorus]
G
            C
Give them a snowstorm
 
[Bridge]
     G
Understand you have a place on this earth
        C
That is something you can’t afford to forget
     G
Understand you will encounter people
          C
Trying to blame someone else for their own self hatred
G
You were conditioned to hate yourself
C
Based on the opinion of everyone else - rethink
 
[Outro]
  G
Rethink (You are not a label or a liability)
  C
Rethink (You are not a label or a liability)
Em                  D#          C
You are not a label or a liability
Em                       D#                     C
You are a ray across the sky, don’t forget your strength
 
  G
Rethink (You are not a label or a liability)
  C
Rethink (You are not a label or a liability)
  G
Rethink (You are not a label or a liability)
 C
(You are not a label)
G
