lyrics

Standing Tall Copyright ©2011 Colin Ward

V1
Colored smudges on your fingers
Diamond piercing on your nose
Orange hair is standing tall
Silver rings on your toes

V2
Proclaim you are an artist
Painting pictures all day long
One day you’ll be famous
Remembered in a song

Chorus
Paint me a picture, Virginia
That I can hang upon my wall
When your name is up in lights
Celebrate by standing tall

V3
You work ‘til 4 in the morning
Sleep ‘til early afternoon
Pot of coffee winds you up
Come back down with greens and blues

Chorus

Guitar solo - Verse

Bridge
Exhibition pays the way
Show that masterpiece ‘til sold
Hoping someone loves your toil
And your heart is filled with gold

Chorus
Repeat Last Line x 2
