[Intro]
(D)
[Verse]
A
It's hard to say this
D/F# G
And I'm a little embarrassed
A
But you've been asking where my ring is
D/F# G G
I guess it's time I be honest
A D/F#
I gave it 4 hours drives, fly in for a night
G
Sat through couples therapy, tears in my eyes
A D/F#
I'd sing his praises on every stage
G
And he just had to mention
He hates the attention
[Chorus]
A
I painted pink skies at sunrise
Bm D
To cover all the blue
G
Hide the shaking ground and storm clouds
So you never knew
A Bm D
I drew up excuses and said "that's what love is"
G
But truth is
Yeah the truth is
A
I painted him perfect
Bm D G
I painted him perfect
[Verse]
A
I had to break it to my parents
D D/F# G
And Daddy says we don't do divorces
A
But they got it once I told them some stories
D D/F# G
Do you even remember August 14th?
Main stage on the beach
A Em
Atlantic city, I was singing he was causing a scene
D/F# G
I'll keep the rest between him and me
[Chorus]
A
I painted pink skies at sunrise
Bm D
To cover all the blue
G
Hide the shaking ground and storm clouds
So you never knew
A Bm D
I drew up excuses and said "that's what love is"
G
But truth is
Yeah the truth is
A
I painted him perfect
Bm D G
I painted him perfect
[Break]
Em
You could say I missed some red flags
D/F#
But what it comes down to is
G
I was yellow, he was green
Gm
And all we ever made was blue
[Chorus]
A
I painted pink skies at sunrise
Bm D
To cover all the blue
G
Hide the shaking ground and storm clouds
So you never knew
A Bm D
I drew up excuses and said "that's what love is"
G
But that's not what love is
N.C.
I shouldn't have to paint
[Chorus]
A
Pink skies at sunrise
Bm D
To cover all the blue (cover all the blue)
G
Hide the shaking ground and storm clouds
A
So you never knew (you never knew)
A Bm D
I drew up excuses and said "that's what love is"
G
But truth is
Yeah the truth is
A
I painted him perfect
Bm D G
I painted him perfect (I painted him perfect)
No no
A
He didn't deserve it
Bm D G
But I painted him perfect
I painted him perfect
A Bm D G G A
I painted him.
Bm D G
