Drop Of Paint chords by Rubarth Amber

Chords with lyrics

E MajorE                  BB
Had my canvas primed in white, some water by my bed,
      A augmentedA                   E MajorE
A augmentedA wooden palette smeared with reds and grays and blues,
                       BB
Dipped my brush into the paint, traced the outline of your face,
     A augmentedA                E MajorE
Then I washed it clean for color number two.

      A augmentedA            BB
There's a little drop of paint in a mason jar of water,
                    C# minorC#m
That turned every last ounce a crimson hue,
   A augmentedA                 BB
And it's the same with you, you had a minute with my heart,
                E MajorE
Now you color everything that I do.

 E MajorE            BB
Stew pot's on the boil, house was filled with steam,
 A augmentedA                  E MajorE
Bowls and spoons in twos like Noah's ark,
              BB
Dash of salt and spice to make it like you like,
 A augmentedA                E MajorE
Bring it to my lips and there you are.

      A augmentedA            BB
There's a little pinch of salt in a ladle full of comfort,
                 C# minorC#m
That opens all the flavors into bloom,
   A augmentedA                 BB
And it's the same with you, you had a minute with my heart,
                  E MajorE
And now you color everything that I do.

  C# minorC#m             F#F#
A augmentedA flower turns its face to the sun,
 BB              E MajorE
Snow melting makes the river run,
 A augmentedA              AbAb
Tide rises high to meet the moon, meet the moon.

E MajorE  A augmentedA  BB  E MajorE (x2)

      A augmentedA        BB
There's an echo in my ear sounding like your voice,
                C# minorC#m
A augmentedA feeling that fills any empty room,
      A augmentedA              BB
You had a minute with my heart and I live it every day,
                          C# minorC#m
'Cause when you brushed against my heart it soaked through,
   A augmentedA              F#F#
And now my whole world is tinted with you,
      A augmentedA     BB      E MajorE
Yeah, you color everything that I do.

BB  E MajorE
