Note: This is VERY basic.  A friend of mine gave me some of the chords and I
got the rest on my own.  It does not sound right if you play it with the
recording, but if you lay the chords and sing it correctly, it sound fine.
 This is just a basic outline, no solo.

A                    E                        F#m                        D
                    A                  E
     Anger!  He smiles towering in shiny metallic purple armor.  Queen
Jealousy envy waits 
                        F#m                           D
                             D                  A 
 behind him, her firey green gown stares at the grassy ground.  Blue are the
life-giving 

                         Bm                         G                 D
                             A
waters taken for granted, they quietly understand.  Once happy turquoise
armies lay 

              Bm                                  G    G6
opposite ready, but wonder why the fight is on.

   A                  E             F#m     G   A                 E
             F#m   G       A         E 
      But they're all bold as love.            Yes they're all  bold as love
   Yeah!  They're all bold 
     F#m  G                
as love.  Just ask the Axis...He knows ev'ry thing*

           A            E                                          F#m
                 D                 A
     My red is so confident he flashes portraits of war, and visions of
euphoria.  Orange is 

E                                 F#m                         D
                  D                        A  
young, full of daring, but very unsteady for the first go round.  My yellow
in this case is not 

                    Bm                                G
                                D                             A
so mellow, in fact I'm trying to say, it's frightened like me.  And all these
emotions of mine 

                                F#m                      G              G6
keep pulling me from giving my love to a rainbow like you, but I'm uh...
(Chorus)
