The Colors Only He Can Know

[Intro] Am  F
        Am  F

            Am
From the corner I can see
                         F
His red hands stains the ink again 
(uh-uh-uh)
   Am
He try to copy a song
                       F
But his voice keeps sinking down 
(uh-uh-uh)

   Am
He followed a light not his light

He swapped his frames for a short 
time
   F
He threw his pencil to the page

Watched his pride break and fall 
loose

Am
Every chord he plays is lead

Every line he draws feels useless
F
I will wait and I will stay

Continues after the ad
I will wait for him, one step-

C                     G
The Sun comes up, the world leans in
                   Am            
He'll remember the colors only he 
          F Fm
can know
    C               G
The music hurts, my brush just broke
     Am                            
I'll stay and watch them slowly go

[Interlude] C  G  Am  F
             C  G  Am  F

Am
He thought the clapping sounded like
                   F
The push he really needed (uh-uh-uh)
Am
He stole the voice from other songs
                  F
But mirrors never lie to him 
(uh-uh-uh)

   Am
Oh he's quiet, won't go on

He draws streets he'll never walk
F
Honestly, you won't see something 
more

Than what's behind the painted wall

Am
Every chord he plays is lead

Every line he draws feels useless
F
Colors fade to one only tear

'Cause' this song is never in its 
tone

C                     G
The Sun comes up, the world leans in
                   Am            
He'll remember the colors only he 
          F Fm
can know
    C               G
The music hurts, my brush just broke
     Am                            
I'll stay and watch them slowly go
