Painted Ladies (Ian Thomas Band)
(chorded by Joe Pezzola)
There are three chords in this song, Em - Am - D ,and its
for a beginner to play through with confidence
(The electric keyboard at the beginning doesn't sound good on acoustic guitar I just
up at the rhythm section and go from there)(This corrects the chord progression in the
and adds the missing chord for line three of the main verses)
I Emremember setting out just to see what I could see
Streetcars rolling by and airplanes flying high they all meant nothing to me
NAmo one ever looked my way or knew that I was there
I Emkept walking and the rain kept raining until all the streets were bare
OEmoh oDoh, fEmeeling fDine mama
PEmainted lDadies and a bEmottle of wDine mama
OAmoh oDoh, fAmeeling gDood mama
TEmhey took my mDoney like I kEmnew they wDould
LAma la la la, lDa, la la
LAma la la la, lDa-a-a-a
LAma la la la, lDa, la la
LAma la la la, lDa-a-a-a
CEmity lights were shining on me through my window pane
I kept thinking 'bout the day when I'd be home again
RAmocking chairs and summer fairs and swimming in the sea
I Emkept drinking, sinking, till there was nothing left of me
OEmoh oDoh, fEmeeling fDine mama
PEmainted lDadies and a bEmottle of wDine mama
OAmoh oDoh, fAmeeling gDood mama
TEmhey took my mDoney like I kEmnew they wDould
LAma la la la, lDa, la la
LAma la la la, lDa-a-a-a
LAma la la la, lDa, la la
LAma la la la, lDa-a-a-a
LAma la la la, lDa, la la
LAma la la la, lDa-a-a-a
LAma la la la, lDa, la la
LAma la la la, lDa-a-a-a
Emfade out
