Band - When I Paint My Masterpiece Lyrics
D a d a e(no chord) a d aOh, the streets of rome are filled with rubble,E a dAncient footprints are everywhere.A d aYou could almost think that your seeing double,E aOn the cold, dark night on the spanish stairs.E aGotta hurry on back to my hotel room,E a dWhere i got me a date with a pretty little girl from greece.A d aShe promised she'd be there with me,E aWhen i paint my masterpiece.D a d a e(no chord) a d aOh, the hours we spent, inside the coliseum.E aDodging lions, and a-wasting time,D a d aOh those mighty kings of the jungle, i could hardly stand to see'emE aYes it sure has been a long, hard drive.E aTrain wheels a-running thru the back of my memory,E a dWhen i ran on a hilltop following a pack of wild geese,A d aSomeday everything is gonna sound like a rhapsodyE aWhen i paint my masterpiece.Am c#mSailing round the world in a dirty gondola,D bb e d c#m d eOh to be back in the land of, coca-cola.D a d aWell i left rome, and landed in brussels,E aOn a plane ride so bumby that i almost cried,D a d aClergy men in uniform, and young girls pulling mussels,E aEveryone was there to greet me when i stepped inside,E aNewspaper men eating candy,E a dHad to be held down by big police.A d a e aSomeday, its gonna be different, when i paint my masterpiece.
