Verse:
G
My life

My life was black and white and
           C
I believed it I believed it
G
My eyes
                                          C
My eyes looked at the world but couldn't see it

I couldn't see it

Pre-Chorus:
D
You're like the thing that makes
     G              C
the uniVerse explode
D                     G
Into the colors of a world
               C
I've never known

You keep turning keep turning my life around

Chorus:
Em       D  G       C        D    G   D
Violets and purples diamonds and circles
Em        D  G    C   D G D
You're my kaleidoscope
Em        D  G      C          D  G
I love every minute you've got me in it
Em         D  G     C G D
You're my kaleidoscope


G               C
Hey la-na-na oh-whoa
         Em           D          C    G
You keep turning keep turning my life around
G               C
Hey la-na-na oh-whoa
         Em           D          C    G
You keep turning keep turning my life around

Verse:
G
Tonight
                                 C
The stars are in your eyes and I surrender I surrender
G
Tonight
                                   C
Our hands against the wind; we are forever we are forever
D                          G               C
It all looks better when I see it with you here

You keep turning keep turning my life around

Chorus:
Em       D  G       C        D    G   D
Violets and purples diamonds and circles
Em        D  G    C   D G D
You're my kaleidoscope
Em        D  G      C          D  G
I love every minute you've got me in it
Em         D  G     C G D

You keep turning keep turning my life around

Bridge:
G                       C
I closed my eyes to the orange skies
       G                   C
Living all of my days the same
        G                  C
and you came along and you sang your song
        G                     C
and the whole world around me changed

Violets and purples diamonds and circles
Em        D  G    C   D G D
You're my kaleidoscope
Em        D  G      C          D  G
I love every minute you've got me in it
Em         D  G     C G D
You're my kaleidoscope

I can do 4 chords and nothing else

At the start of quarantine, I got so sad I couldn’t play this – Bb was just too hard for me and I felt so disheartened. Now it’s November and I’m strumming like a champ 🙂 practice really does make perfect! (I’m aware that as of posting this it’s a relatively new arrangement, there was another version of this that I couldn’t play due to the Bb chord)

Kit-Kat Bar

I swear I don’t play for 1 week and now all the good songs are on! lol, anyway love to all who play and thi sis probably the only thing keeping me sane in quarentine.

I am happy I have a ukulele so I can play songs. Its kept my spirits high during quarantine. I do find myself mostly playing Cavetown songs 😅 but, I mean, who can blame me, they are really fun to play, and I feel like most of Cavetowns songs mean something to everyone in different ways. Thats why I love music. It may be talking about one thing, sure, but to everyone who hears it, they could be interpreting it in another way. I love hearing different interpretations of songs and what everyone thinks its about and how it hits home for them. I love playing songs and seeing the different reactions and hearing feedback, and thank you uketabs for helping me learn them ☺️
