Chords for Grateful Dead - When I Paint My Masterpiece (3-25-90)

_ _ _ [G] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ Oh, those trees of gold _ _ _ are filled with _ rubble. _
_ _ _ [D] Ancient footprints _
[Bm] are _ [G] everywhere. _ _ _
_ _ _ Well, you could almost think _ that you're seeing double _ _
On _ [C] _ [D] a cold, [B] dark night on a Spanish [G] day. _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [D] _ Gotta run back [E] tomorrow
Or [G] tell her _ _ _ _ _ [D] where I got me a date
By each other's [G] knees. _ _
_ _ _ _ _ She promised _ [C] she'd be right [G] there with me
_ _ _ When [D] I _ paint _ my _ [G] masterpiece. _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [D] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [G] _ _ _
_ _ _ Oh, there I'll be _ _
_ _ Inside the Coliseum _
_ _ _ _ [Dm] Dodging _ [G] lies
_ [D] Wasting, wasting time. _
_ _ _ _ Oh, those mighty kings of the jungle lock and harpen to stand to see
Well, _ _ _ [D] it sure _ has been a long, [G] hard ride
_ _ _ _ [D] _ Drinking a wheel, rolling through the [G] back of my memory _
_ _ _ _ _ [D] Wearing a nail top, following [G] a pack of wild geese _ _ _ _ _ _
Someday, life will be sweet like a rhapsody
[G] _ When [D] I paint _ _ _ my [G] masterpiece. _

_ _ _ _ [D] _ _ [A] _ _
_ _ _ [D] Well, I [A] left Rowan _ in Atlanta and in Brussels
_ _ _ _ On [E] a flight so bumpy that I [A] almost cried
_ [A] _ _ Pushing out a uniform
_ _ As a young girl from the _ _ bustle
[E] Well, it sure _ has been a long, [A] hard ride
_ _ _ _ _ [E] _ _ _
Newspaper and _ [A] reading candy
_ _ _ _ _ [E] _ Had to be held down by [A] big police
_ _ _ _ _ _ _
Someday, _ _ everything's gonna be different
_ _ _ _ [E] When I paint _ _ [B] my [A] masterpiece. _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _
Someday, _ _ everything's gonna be different
_ _ _ When [E] I _ paint _ my [A] masterpiece. _ _
_ _ _ [E] When I _ paint _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [B] my [A] masterpiece.
When I paint _ my masterpiece. _ _ _ _
