            D             Em         
He was sitting there his brush in hand

Aadd11         A                D      
Painting waves as they dance upon the sand

      D              Em                
With every stroke he brought to life

     Aadd11          A                 D      
The deep blue of the ocean against the morning sky

   Em                          Aadd11 A     
I asked him if he only painted ocean scenes 

    G                            Aadd11       A
He said for twenty dollars, I'll paint you anything

                     D        
Could you paint me a Birmingham?

                      Bm        
Make it look just the way I plan

                      G         
A little house on the edge of town

                    A      
Porch goin' all the way around

                     D            
Put her there on the front yard swing

                      Bm          
Cotton dress, make it early spring

                     G     Aadd11 A  
For awhile she'll be mine aga---in

                        D         
If you could paint me a Birmingham

    D                  Em       
He looked at me, with knowing eyes

    Aadd11         A                D          
And took a canvas from a bag there by his side

       D               Em      
Picked up a brush and said to me

       Aadd11           A                D        
Son just where in this picture would you like to be?

   Em                            Aadd11 A
I asked him if there's anyway you can

          G                        Aadd11 A
Could you paint me back into her arms again?

                     D
Could you paint me a Birmingham?

                       Bm       
Make it look just the way I plan

                      G          
A little house on the edge of town

                   Aadd11 A         
Porch goin' all the way around

                      D           
Put her there on the front yard swing

                       Bm           
Cotton dress, make it early spring

                     G       Aadd11 A
