The Night I Painted The Sky chords

[INTRO]
[E] [C#m] [F#7] [Bsus] [E]

[VERSE]
I [A]came from the north escaping con [E]vention,
The [B]modern invention that won't let me [E]be
To the [A]shores of St. Maarten with my fiction addi [G#m]ction,
To [F#]restart the fire a dreamer's [B]remedy

Inde [A]pendence day and all I re [E]member,
Was a [B]midnight rainbow that fell from the [E]sky
As I [A]stand on the beach I slowly sur [G#m]render,
To the [F#]child in me who can't say good [B]bye

The [E]rockets in the [G#m]air,
And the [A]people every [E]where
[C#m]Put away their [F#]differences for a [B]while
Oh [E]I am still a [G#m]child
When it [A]comes to something [F#]wild
[E]That was the [B]night I [A]painted the [E]sky

I [A]dug in the sand like a boy, on a [E]mission.
And [B]there in my hands a pyro's de [E]light
A [A]bombadier, a nighttime magi [E]cian,
I [F#]spark the sky as the rockets fly from [B]view

The [E]rockets in the [G#m]air,
And the [A]people every [E]where
[C#m]Put away their [F#]differences for a [B]while
Oh [E]I am still a [G#m]child
When it [A]comes to something [F#]wild
[E]That was the [B]night I [A]painted the [E]sky

[INSTRUMENTAL]
Oh the [A]mortars they roar in antici [E]pation,
Pre [A]ceding the sigh of the uplifted [E]eyes
It [A]showers us all in sulfuric sens [E]ation,
The [F#]colors shine in a fiery rhyme to [B]night

[VERSE]
The [E]rockets in the [G#m]air,
And the [A]people every [E]where
[C#m]Put away their [F#]differences for a [B]while
Oh [E]I am still a [G#m]child
When it [A]comes to something [F#]wild
[E]That was the [C#m]night
Oh, [E]that was the [F#]night
[E]That was the [B]night, I [A]painted the [E]sky
