Paint Me A Birmingham

D G A Bm D G He was sittin' there, his brush in hand A D Paintin' waves as they danced, upon the sand D G With every stroke, he brought to life A D The deep blue of the ocean, against the mornin' sky G A I asked him if he only painted ocean scenes G A He said for twenty dollars, I'll paint you anything D Well could you paint me a Birmingham Bm Make it look just the way I planned G A little house on the edge of town A Porch goin' all the way around D Put her there in the front yard swing Bm Cotton dress make it, early Spring G A For a while she'll be mine again D If you could paint me a Birmingham D G He looked at me, with knowin' eyes A D Then took a canvas from a bag there by his side D G Picked up a brush, and said to me A D Son just where in this picture, would you like to be G A I said if there is any way you can G A Could you paint me back into her arms again D Well could you paint me a Birmingham Bm Make it look just the way I planned G A little house on the edge of town A Porch goin' all the way around D Put her there in the front yard swing Bm Cotton dress make it, early Spring G A For a while she'll be mine again D If you could paint me a Birmingham Bm G A D Put her there in the front yard swing Bm Cotton dress make it, early Spring G A For a while she'll be mine again D If you could paint me a Birmingham
