When I Paint My Masterpiece Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[A][D][A][D]
[A][D]

[Verse 1]
Oh, the streets of [A]Rome are [D]filled with [A]rubble
Ancient [E]footprints are every[A]where
[D]You can alm[A]ost think
that you're [D]seein' [A]double
On a [E]cold, dark night on the Spanish [A]Stairs

[Chorus 1]
[E]Got to hurry on back to my hotel roo[A]m
Where I [E]got me a date
With a pretty little girl from [A]Greece
She promised she'd be there with me
When I [E]paint my master[A]piece

[Interlude 1]
[D][A][D][A]
Oh, the [D]hours we'd

[Verse 2]
[A]spend
inside the [D]Coli[A]seum
Dodging [E]lions and wastin' [A]time
[D]Oh, those [A]mighty kings of the jungle
I could [D]hardly stand to [A]see 'em
Yes, it [E]sure has been a long, hard [A]climb

[Chorus 2]
[E]Train wheels are runnin'
through the back of my [A]memory
When I [E]ran on the hilltop
Following a pack of wild [A]geese
Someday, everything is gonna sound
like a [A]rhapsody
When I [E]paint my master[A]piece

[Bridge 1]
[Dm]Sailing 'round the world in a dirty gon[A]dola
[C#m]Oh, to be ba[D]ck in the land of[E] Coca Co[D]la
[A](We[G#]ll, I[E] left)[D]

[Verse 3]
[A]Rome and [D]landed in [A]Brussels
On a [E]plane ride so bumpy that I almost [A]cried
[D]Clergymen in [A]uniform
and young [D]girls pullin' [A]muscles
Everyone was [E]there to greet me
when I stepped in[A]side

[Chorus 3]
[E]Newspapermen eating [A]candy
[E]Had to be held down by big polic[A]e
But someday, everything is gonna be diff'rent
When I [E]paint that master[A]piece

[Outro 1]
[D][A][D][A]
[Repeat and fade}
