THE PAINTER

As recorded by Cody Johnson

(2023 release)

Intro

Verse 1

She

talks about the future like she's

flippin' through a

magazine

Finds the beauty in the

thrown away and

broken things

Gets excited about

all my

crazy

dreams

Verse 2

Got every sunset that she's

ever seen

memorized

Saves them away for a

rainy day or

stormy night

The sky's brighter lookin'

at it

through her

eyes

Chorus

I don't re

member

Life before she came into the

picture

Brought the beauty I was missin'

with her

Showed me colors I ain't ever

seen

She took

chances

With every wall I built, she saw a

canvas

I thank God every day for how He

made her

My life was black and white but s

he is the painter

Verse 3

She reminds me that it

ain't too late to

start again

Fine is good but you

need some blue every

now and then

How'd I live so long with

out her

reckless

touch?

Chorus

I don't re

member

Life before she came into the

picture

Brought the beauty I was missin'

with her

Showed me colors I ain't ever

seen

She took

chances

With every wall I built, she saw a

canvas

I thank God every day for how He

made her

My life was black and white but s

he is the painter

Interlude

Chorus

I don't re

member

Life before she came into the

picture

Brought the beauty I was missin'

with her

Showed me colors I ain't ever

seen

She took

chances

With every wall I built, she saw a

canvas

I thank God every day for how He

made her

My life was black and white but s

he is the painter
