[Intro] Fm7 Bbm7 Ebm7 Gb/Ab Fm7 Bbm7 Gm7b5 Ab/Gb Gbdim7 [Verse 1]
Db                Cbmaj7
Such a picture of loveliness

Gb/Bb      Ab           Db
Didn't you notice the resemblance?

Db                             Eb/G     Adim7
Doesn't it look like she could speak?

Db    Db9/F           Ebdim7
Those eyes I tried to capture

         Gm7b5 Cdim7 Db/Ab
They are lost to me now forever

Gb/Bb          Cb9     Fm7      Bbm7    Ebm7    Gb/Ab
They smile for someone else
[Chorus]
Fm7        Bbm7            Gm7b5 Gbdim7
Funny, how looks can be deceiving

Fm7           Bbm7
But she's not easily

Ebm7         Gb/Ab Ab
Painted from memory
[Verse 2]
Db                             Eb/G     Adim7
You'd think that I would know by now

Db    Db9/F           Ebdim7
Those eyes I tried to capture

         Gm7b5 Cdim7 Db/Ab
They are lost to me now forever

Gb/Bb          Cb9     Fm7      Bbm7    Ebm7    Gb/Ab
They smile for someone else
[Chorus]
Fm7           Bbm7
And so this had to be

Ebm7         Gb/Ab Ab
Painted from memory
[Verse 3]
Db                             Eb/G     Adim7
She is gone, and I must accept it

Db    Db9/F           Ebdim7
She is lost to me now

         Gm7b5 Cdim7 Db/Ab
But I can't look away just yet though

Gb/Bb          Cb9     Fm7      Bbm7    Ebm7    Gb/Ab
She smiles for someone else
[Chorus x2]
Fm7           Bbm7
And so this had to be

Ebm7         Gb/Ab Ab
Painted from memory

Fm7           Bbm7
Funny, now I can see

Ebm7         Gb/Ab Ab
How looks can be deceiving
