♫ 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
