Kenny Rogers – If I Were A Painting (Guitar)

G                 D
[tab]C                        B       
Captured on canvas

C                      D               Em
Alone in the portrait I would stand

Em                            D      
And brush strokes bold

C                            B  
Yet soft as a whisper

C                       D           Em
The work of a feminine hand

C                      D   
Caught in a still life

G                        C
Surrounded by shadows

F                                        B
Or lost in a background of blue

G                            D
If I were a painting

C                            B
My price would be pain

              C                         D              Em
And the artist would have to be you

G                               D
I imagine the colors

C                                B
Would all run together

C                          D                 Em
If you ever allowed me to cry

C                               D
So don't paint the tears

C                                   B
Just let me remember me

C                     D          Em
Without you in my life

C                          D
It's only the frame

C                           B
That holds me together

  C                        D                   Em
Or else I would be falling apart

G                           D
If I were a painting

C                     B
I wouldn't fear

             C                                 D               Em
And you wouldn't be breaking my heart
