The Red Strokes (Listen to midi) (Listen to sample)

G Em

1. Moonlight on canvas, midnight and wine,

C G

two shadows starting to softly combine.

\ Em

The picture they're painting is one of the heart,

\ D

and to those who have seen it, it's a true work of art.

G Em

Oh, the red strokes, passions uncaged,

C D

thundering moments of tenderness rage.

G Em

Oh, the red strokes, tempered and strong,

Am D C ~

burning the night like the dawn.

G Em

2. Steam on the window, salt in a kiss,

C G

two hearts have never pounded like this.

\ Em

Inspired by a vision, that they can't command,

D

erasing the borders with each brush of a hand. + CHORUS

Em D C G

Oh, the blues will be blue and the jealousies green,

Em D D7

but when love picks its shade it demands to be seen.

+ CHORUS + CHORUS

G Em

Steam on the window, salt in a kiss,

C G

two hearts have never pounded like this.
