(Verse 1)

C  Caug

Sudden darkness falls again,

Am  C7

Over the city, still and cold.

F  Fm

Like a tomb, the streets are silent,

C  G7

Far from Paris, stories untold.

(Verse 2)

C  Caug

Then the gray sky splits apart,

Am  C7

With a roar, it tears in two.

F  Fm

A thousand brushes of light dance,

C  G7

Painting April’s sky anew.

(Chorus)

B  Em

A blazing magenta glow,

A  D

Lights the celestial black.

G  C

Golden dust of saffron hue,

F#  Baug

Spreads above us, never looking back.

(Verse 3)

C  Caug

Eyes lost in the colors bright,

Am  C7

Children’s faces shine with grace.

F  Fm

Marvelous, these crimson lights,

C  G7

Reflected in their gaze.

(Verse 4)

C  Caug

Blue now fills the air we breathe,

Am  C7

White erases every line.

F  Fm

Final bouquet, a fleeting dream,

C  G7

A cotton salute, divine.

(Chorus)

B  Em

A blazing magenta glow,

A  D

Lights the celestial black.

G  C

Golden dust of saffron hue,

F#  Baug

Spreads above us, never looking back.
