The Painter Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[G][C][Em]

[Verse 1]
Fear of black and [Em]yellow[C][Em]
Is pushing in [C]the blue
[G]Here, I made a willow
[C]Traces [G]of you[Em]

[Verse 2]
[Em]
Crushing a piano
The pieces in the [C]yard
[G]I can see the faces
Tracing your [Em]heart

[Verse 3]
[Em]Fear has made you shallow
Hiding in your [C]tomb[G]
I'm screaming at the dust,
"Is this good [Em]by you?"

[Verse 4]
Oh-oh, [C]oh
oh
Calling out [Em]in space[Am]
Calling out for [C]home
I once [Em]called [C]you friend[Am]
Greatest fool, I [Bm]know

[Verse 5]
Been around [Bm]the city
[G]And out in [Bm]the country
Been around the world now
[G]I'm out in the water
[Bm]I'm waving not d[G]rowning

[Verse 6]
What's lost in the painting?
[Em]
Somebody, y'all know
Somebody, [Bm]y'all [G]know
Somebody
[C]Som[Em]ebody

[Verse 7]
[Em]
Sienna yellow
Fire apple hue
[C]Wel[G]l, I'm screaming at the dust,
[C]"Is thi[G]s good by [Em]you?"
Oh-o[Bm]h,

[Verse 8]
[C]oh
oh
Calling out [Am]in space
On the canvas [C]cold
On the pallet [Am]knife
Only red [Bm]you know

[Verse 9]
Been around [Bm]the world [G]now
And out in the country
[Bm]Been to every [G]city
I'm out in the water
[Bm]I'm waving not drowning
[G]I d[Bm]on't [G]need a saviour
[Bm]I'm waving not d[G]rowning
What's lost in the painting?
[C]

[Verse 10]
What's lost in the paint[Am]ing,
in the crimson [C]holes?
What's under the shad[Am]ows,
that you made your [Bm]own?

[Verse 11]
[Bm]Some can't see it [G]all
Some can't [Bm]see at all
Some can't see it [G]all
Some can't [Bm]see at all
Some can't see it [G]all
Some can't see [Bm]at all
Some can't see at all
Some can't [G]see [Bm]it al[G]l
Some can't see [Bm]at all

[Outro 1]
