[ch]D7[/ch]\r\nA man who lived with brushes, sticks and stones.[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]G[/ch] [ch]C[/ch]\r\nHis days were filled with canvas scenes[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]D[/ch] [ch]Em[/ch]\r\nOf browns and blues and meadow greens.[/tab]\r\n[tab] [ch]Bm[/ch] [ch]C[/ch] [ch]G[/ch]\r\nAnd the world just passed on by his door.[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]D[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]G[/ch]\r\nHe lived, but lived alone.[/tab]\r\n\r\n\r\n[tab][ch]G[/ch] [ch]D[/ch] [ch]Em[/ch] [ch]Bm[/ch]\r\nAnd he'd come to town with his old wool cap pulled down.[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]C[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]D7[/ch] [ch]D7[/ch]\r\nSurrounded by the dogs that were his friends.[/tab]\r\n[tab] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]D[/ch] [ch]Em[/ch] [ch]Bm[/ch]\r\nAt times too drunk to stand, he'd shake familiar hands.[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]C[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]D7[/ch]\r\nAnd sit around the Esso station, 'til his loneliness would end.[/tab]\r\n\r\n\r\n[tab][ch]G[/ch] [ch]C[/ch] [ch]D[/ch] [ch]Em[/ch]\r\nAnd I knew a painter, in my reckless days.[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]Bm[/ch] [ch]C[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]D7[/ch]\r\nBristle bearded, humble on his feet.[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]G[/ch] [ch]C[/ch]\r\nA sympathetic, sad old

2 bars)\r\nWould burn inside the room where he would stand.\r\n[tab][ch]G[/ch] [ch]D[/ch] [ch]Em[/ch] [ch]Bm[/ch]\r\nAnd play the old victrola and drink his rusty wine.[/tab]\r\n[tab] [ch]C[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]D7[/ch]\r\nAnd conduct the Mozart music with his heart and shaking hand.[/tab]\r\n\r\n\r\n[tab][ch]D[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]Gsus4[/ch] [ch]G[/ch]\r\nBut he could paint a picture, and he could capture life.[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]D[/ch] [ch]D/C[/ch] [ch]G[/ch]\r\nAnd no one ever felt things more than he.[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]D[/ch] [ch]D/C[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]D/F#[/ch] [ch]Em[/ch] [ch]Em/D[/ch]\r\nHe was never much for roses, he'd sooner paint the thorns.[/tab]\r\n[tab] [ch]C[/ch] [ch]C[/ch]\r\n'Cause he found a keener beauty there[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]C[/ch] [ch]D[/ch]\r\nThat no
