Intro
D Bm G A
            D            Bm
When God paints, birds sing
     G                           A
He colors every feather on a sparrows wings
          D                Bm
When God paints, the wind blows
         G                                        A
With a stroke of love, he dips his brush in the rainbow
     G                             A
Sometimes I take for granted the simple things
      G                             A
I can be his biggest critic when it starts to rain
              G                        A
But there's always a bigger picture I can't explain
           D                Bm
When God paints, the heart beats
G                              A
Life begins, season ends and lovers meet
            D              Bm
And I've learned that sometimes
           G                                 A
It's not always black and white or well defined
            D    Bm G A
When God paints
     G                             A
Sometimes I take for granted the simple things
      G                             A
I can be his biggest critic when it starts to rain
              G                        A
But there's always a bigger picture I can't explain
           D          Bm
When God paints, we dance
        G                            A
And I reach across the canvas and I take your hand
         D           Bm
And my world is so complete
         G                            A
When I look at you, a masterpiece is all I see
           D
When God paints
     G                             A
Sometimes I take for granted the simple things
      G                             A
I can be his biggest critic when it starts to rain
              G                        A
But there's always a bigger picture I can't explain
           D     Bm
When God paints
           G                      A
I pray I always see the beauty inside the frame
           D    Bm A D
