    D                                 Bm                 A
She talks about the future like she's flippin' through a magazine

D                       Bm              A
Finds the beauty in the thrown away and broken things

D                  Bm     A     D      Bm A
Gets excited about all my crazy dreams
[Verse 2]
D                           Bm        A
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]
A         G
I don't remember

                              D
Life before she came into the picture

                                 A
Brought the beauty I was missin' with her

                              Bm
Showed me colors I ain't ever seen

D/F#     G
She took chances

                                   D
With every wall I built, she saw a canvas

                                 A
I thank God every day for how He made her

                                 G
My life was black and white but she is the painter

She reminds me that it ain't too late to start again

D                    Bm                   A
Fine is good but you need some blue every now and then

How'd I live so long without her reckless touch?
[Chorus]

I don't remember
