I’m sure the chords are right, but it was difficult to plot where there were chord
changes.  Sorry if the changes are messed up.

[Verse 1]
 
A                 E                 F#m             D
  Anger he smiles towering in shiny metallic purple armor
A                 E
  Green Jealousy, envy waits behind him
F#m               D
  Her fiery green gown sneers at the grassy ground
D                          A*               Bm
  Blue are the life-giving waters taken for granted
               G
  They quietly understand
      D                    A                   Bm
  The once happy turquoise armies lay opposite ready
                     G
  But wonder why the fight is on
 
 
[Chorus]
 
A**           E           F#m   G
  But they're all bold as love
A**             E           D/F#
  Yeah, they're all bold as love
A**       E*          F#m
  They're all bold as love
       D/F#          A**  Bm  D*  G
  Just ask the axis
 
 
[Verse 2]
 
     A         E**
  My red is so confident that he flashes
  F#m                            D
  Trophies of war and ribbons of euphoria
A                  E
  Orange is young, full of daring
F#m                         D
  But very unsteady for the first go around
D**                         A
  My yellow in this case is not so mellow
Bm                               G
  In fact I'm trying to say it's frightened like me
D**                              A
  And all these emotions of mine keep holding me from
Bm                    G
  Giving my life to a rainbow like you
 
 
[Chorus]
 
A**             E*      F#m   G
  But I'm bold, bold as love
A**              E*          D/F#
  Yeah I'm bold, I’m bold as love
A**         E*          F#m
  I'm bold, I’m bold as love
       D/F#         A**
  Just ask the axis
Bm               D**      G
  Yeah he knows, he knows everything
 
[Solo]
 
 
[Outro]
C           G       Am   F
  I'm bold, bold as love
C                G           Am   F
  Yeah I'm bold, I’m bold as love
C           G           Am
  I'm bold, I’m bold as love
F
  Yeah

I think the F in the end chorus sounds more correct then the A#. You are the only one to even include the key change on here. Great work.
