When I Paint My Masterpiece Lyrics

Oh, the streets of Rome are filled with rubble,

            E         A   
   D

ancient footprints are everywhere.

    A                       
       D        A

You could almost think that your seeing double,

  
        E        A

On the cold, dark night on the Spanish Stairs.

E 
  A

Gotta hurry on back to my hotel room,

E                         
                                    A        D

Where I got me a date with
a pretty little girl from Greece.

       A    D     A

She promised
she'd be there with me,

            E           A

When I paint my
masterpiece.

D  A   D   A   E

(no chord)           A               
       D   A

Oh, the hours we spent, inside the Coliseum.

          
   E                                     A  

Dodging lions, and a-wasting
time,

D            A                                                   D 
                   A

oh those mighty kings of the jungle, I could hardly
stand to see'em

          E                                       A

Yes it sure has been a long, hard drive.

E              A

Train
wheels a-running thru the back of my memory,

            E               
                                             A        D

When I ran on a
hilltop following a pack of wild geese,

A                                
          D                 A

Someday everything is gonna sound like a
rhapsody

             E                              A

When I paint
my masterpiece.

Am                                                  C
