[C][G][C][G][C][D]

[Verse 1]
When [Am]I
go out with [D]artists
[Em]They talk about language and the Cu
[C]bists and [G]the Dadaists
[Am]And I try to catch their [D]meanings
[C]And keep up with all[D] the martin[G]is
[D]I don't know whi[G]ch should be
my [C]favorite [Em]paintings[D]

[Verse 2]
[C]If I could see, if I could see, if I could
[G]See all the symbols,
unlock what they [Em]mean
[C]Maybe I could, maybe I could, maybe I
[G]Could meet the artists,
and get to know them [Em]personally
[Bb][D][G]

[Verse 3]
[D]If I w[Am]ere David Byrne[D]
[Em]I'd go to galleries and not [C]be too concerned
[G]Well I would hav[Am]e a cup of cof[D]fee
[C]And I'd find my sur
[D]roundings quite amus[G]ing and
[D]People would ask me [G]which were my favorite pai[C]ntings
[Em][D]

[Verse 4]
What if the [G]artists ran the [A]TV?[D]
All the ads would be for [G]fine [A]scotch

Glenfiddich, Glenlivet,
[G]the whole single mal[D]t family[G]
[C]

[Verse 5]
[Bm]The
artists of the [E]future
[F#m]Will make up new things and
[D]different nomen[A]clatures
And [Bm]they'll stand amongst their [E]pictures
[D]And they'll sing and lau[E]gh and
quote from [A]scriptures and
[E]When they go hom[A]e they'll dream of brilliant pai[D]ntings
