[Intro 1]
[Am][Dm]
[C][Em]
[Am][Dm]
[C][Em]
[Am][Dm]
[C][Em]

[Verse 1]
Ain't [Am]no color paint gonna cover the stains
The [Dm]pictures on the wall will all remain
And [C]even though he's home
now sounding safe
Sur[Em]rounded by the faces
that he place his faith
The [Am]images visit from the
past he witnessed
[Dm]Can't stay away from the memories,
sticks with
[C]Each detail embedded in stone
Like he [Em]chiseled stoves
convictions into his bones
[Am]The progress stops and pauses
[Dm]spits and sputters
Like the basement faucets
And [C]it's obvious he's lost in his regrets,
[Em]You can smell it on his breath

[Verse 2]
Ain't [Am]no color paint
gonna cover the stains
But [Dm]now the alcohol is gonna
mother the pain
[C]Tuck it away, no complaints just
laying on his [Em]back on his
Backyard under the rain
[Am]Take tomorrow but doesn't no how though
for [Dm]every swallow there's another to follow
[C]He weaves his way
throughout the story
[Em]Looking for a new missing
piece or a door key
[Am]Spirits used to be for celebration
But [Dm]now they just take him away
from the hell that's waiting
[C]Re- up until it's three sheets up
And pick a [Em]place for the
skeletons to meet up

[Verse 3]
Ain't [Am]no color paint gonna
cover the stains
But if the [Dm]oxygen escapes
it'll smother the flames
[C]No introduction doesn't
speak his own name
[Em]Gonna beat them demons
at they own game
[Am]The sunset rides to the end slow
[Dm]Same song echoing outside of the window
[C]You can't grow if the
skin don't fit you
Some[Em]times you gotta get
low just to get through
[Am]No inspiration left to do your best when,
[Dm]Nobody hates you more
than you're reflection
[C]Suffer the shame until it
stuffs the drain
He's [Em]got two hands and a bucket of paint,

[Outro 1]
come on
[Am][Dm]
[C][Em]
[Am][Dm]
[C][Em]
[Am][Dm]
[C][Em]
[Am][Dm]
[C][Em]
