Start Jamming...
[G] I'm back on dry land once again
[Bm]
Opportunity awaits me like a ride in a [F] drain
We're all hunting honey with [C] money to burn
[Cm] Just a short time to [G] show you the tricks that [Am] we've learned
[Bm]
[F#] [G] If the boys all behave themselves here
Well there's a pretty young [Bm] lady some beer and a ring
[F] You won't need a gun after [C] sleeping tonight
[Cm] Oh the prices are [G] charged here we'll see you [Am] alright
[Bm] So [D] [G] she lays down beside me again
A sweet painted lady the woman her [F] name
Many have used her many [C] still do
[Cm] There's a place in [G] the world for a woman [Am] like you
[Bm] Oh [G] sweet [F#] painted lady [F] seems it's [E] always been the same
[Am] Getting [D] paid or being [G] lame
Yes that's the [C] name of the [D] game
[G] Oh sweet [F#] painted lady [F] seems it's always [E] been the same
[Am] Getting paid [D] or being lame
[G]
Yes that's the [Am] name of the [D] game
[G] [D] Forget [G] us we'll have gone very soon
Just forget we ever slept in your rooms
[F] And we'll leave the smell of the sea in [C] your beds
[Cm] Well love's just a [G] doll and nothing is [Am] said
[D]
[G] So she lays down beside me again
A sweet painted lady the woman her name
[Dm] Many have used her many [C] still do
[Cm] There's a place in the [G] world for a woman like [Am] you
[D]
[G] Oh sweet [F#] painted lady [F]
seems it's always [E] been the same
