[Intro]
E C#m F#7 Bsus E
[Verse]
I Acame from the north escaping con Evention,
The Bmodern invention that won't let me Ebe
To the Ashores of St. Maarten with my fiction addi G#mction,
To F#restart the fire a dreamer's Bremedy
Inde Apendence day and all I re Emember,
Was a Bmidnight rainbow that fell from the Esky
As I Astand on the beach I slowly sur G#mrender,
To the F#child in me who can't say good Bbye
The Erockets in the G#mair,
And the Apeople every Ewhere
C#mPut away their F#differences for a Bwhile
Oh EI am still a G#mchild
When it Acomes to something F#wild
EThat was the Bnight I Apainted the Esky
I Adug in the sand like a boy, on a Emission.
And Bthere in my hands a pyro's de Elight
A Abombadier, a nighttime magi Ecian,
I F#spark the sky as the rockets fly from Bview
The Erockets in the G#mair,
And the Apeople every Ewhere
C#mPut away their F#differences for a Bwhile
Oh EI am still a G#mchild
When it Acomes to something F#wild
EThat was the Bnight I Apainted the Esky
[Instrumental]
Oh the Amortars they roar in antici Epation,
Pre Aceding the sigh of the uplifted Eeyes
It Ashowers us all in sulfuric sens Eation,
The F#colors shine in a fiery rhyme to Bnight
[Verse]
The Erockets in the G#mair,
And the Apeople every Ewhere
C#mPut away their F#differences for a Bwhile
Oh EI am still a G#mchild
When it Acomes to something F#wild
EThat was the C#mnight
Oh, Ethat was the F#night
EThat was the Bnight, I Apainted the Esky
