Must I paint you a picture
(Billy Bragg)
intro: C - G - Am
C G FIt's bad timeing and me
G CWe find a lot of things out this way
GAnd there's you
F GA little black cloud in a dress
C GThe temptation
Am FTo take the precious things we have a part
C G CTo see how they work
G Am F CMust be resisted for they never fit together again
G AmIf this is rain let it fall on me and drown me
G Am GIf these are tears let them fall
C G AmMust I paint you a picture
C G Am
G#out the way that I feel
C Am GYou know that my love for you is strong girl
C Am GYou know that my love for you is real
C G FIt took a short walk and a talk
G CTo change the rules of engagement
G F GWhile you searched frantically for reverse
C GAnd then claiming
Am F C AThat virtue never tested is no virtue at all
C G AmAnd so I lost my ignorance
F-G Am And now the bells across the river chime out your name
G Am GI look across to them again (chorus)
Em CAll your friends sais come down
It will never fly
FAnd on that imperfect day
GWe threw it all away
Em AmCrisis after crisis, with such intensity
F GThis would never happen if we lived by the sea
C G FMost important decisions in life
G CAre made between two people in bed
G F GI found that at my own expense
C GAnd when I see you
Am F C G CYou juts turn around and walk away like we never met
G Am FOh we used to be so brave
G Am GI dreamt the wolrd stopped turning as we climbed the hill
Am GI dreamt impossible dreams that we were lovers still (chorus)
