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

Make it [F#m] look just the way I planned
