[Verse 1]
            G                    F
There's a picture on the wall of me on a John Deere

        Bb                             C
Jenny handed me a beer, said "How the hell did you get there?"

 G      F       Bb     C
Oh, Oklahoma, mhm, hm

               G                  F
There were flowers that were dry sittin' on the dresser

     Bb                                  C
She asked me where they from, I said "A place I don't remember"

 G      F       Bb     C
Oh, Oklahoma, oh, mhm

          F                            C
Jenny jumped into the pool, she was swimmin' with Nikki Lane

           Gm                               Bb
She said "Most men don't want a woman with a legacy, it's of age"

           F                      C
She said "You can't be a muse and be happy too, you can't

 Gm                    Bb                   F  C  Gm  Bb
Blacken the pages with Russian poetry and be happy

        F    C  Gm  Bb
And that scared me,    'cause I met a man who

F                     C
Said he'd come back every May

 Gm              Bb               F         C
Just to help me if I'd paint my banisters blue

      Gm           Bb
Blue banisters, oh

F                C
Said he'd fix my weather vane

Gm               Bb
Give me children, take away my pain

               F         C
And paint my banisters blue

Gm         Bb
My banisters blue
[Verse 2]
G
There's a hole that's in my heart

 F
All my women try and heal

Bb
They're doin' a good job

C
Convincin' me that it's not real

G      F             Bb    C
It's heat lightnin', oh-uh

                G
'Cause there's a man that's in my past

           F
There's a man that's still right here

            Bb                     C
He's real enough to touch in my darkest nights

G      F      Bb    C
He's shining, ooh-oh

            F
Jenny was smokin' by the pool

          C
We were writin' with Nikki Lane

              Gm                          Bb
I said I'm scared of the Santa Clarita Fires
I wish that it would rain
              F
I said the power of us three

    C
Can do absolutely anything

    Gm
Except that one thing

     Bb                         F C Gm Bb
The diamonds, the rust and the rain

                                F C Gm Bb
The thing that washes away the pain
But that's okay, 'cause [Verse 3]
F                C
Now when weather turns to May

Gm             Bb
All my sisters come to paint

   F         C
My banisters green

         Gm         Bb
My blue banisters grey

F               C
Tex and Mex are in the Bay

Gm              Bb
Chucky's makin' birthday cake

F                                  C
Chickens runnin', bare feet, there's a baby on the way

Gm               Bb
And now my blue banisters are green and grey, ah
[Bridge]
F               C
Summer comes, Winter goes

Gm             Bb
Spring I skip, God knows

F               C
Summer comes, Winter goes

Gm             Bb
Spring I sleep, Heaven knows

F               C
Every time it turns to May

Gm             Bb
All my sisters fly to me

F          C
To paint, paint
