It is 1/2 a step higher on the cd than this, so stick a capo on 1.

F Dm Bb F

       F                  Bb
He was sittin' there, his brush in hand
C                               F 
Paintin' waves as they danced, upon the sand
                      Bb
With every stroke, he brought to life
    C                                   F
The deep blue of the ocean, against the mornin' sky
  Bb                           C
I asked him if he only painted ocean scenes
   Bb                            C
He said for twenty dollars, I’ll paint you anything.

(Chorus:)
                            F
Could you Paint Me A Birmingham
                      Dm
Make it look just the way I planned
                      Bb
A little house on the edge of town
                    C
Porch goin' all the way around
                    F
Put her there in the front yard swing
                     Dm
Cotton dress make it, early spring
                    Bb           C
For awhile she’ll be, mine again
                             F   
If you can Paint Me A Birmingham.

Dm Bb F

   F                  Bb
He looked at me, with knowing eyes
     C                              F
Then took a canvas from a bag there by his side
                       Bb
Picked up a brush, and said to me
    C                              F
Son just in this picture would you like to me
Bb                            C
I said if there’s any way you can
          Bb                           C
Could you paint me back into her arms again.


(Chorus)
                  G
Paint Me A Birmingham
                      Em
Make it look just the way I planned
                      C
A little house on the edge of town
                    D
Porch goin' all the way around
                    G
Put he there in the front yard swing
                     Em
Cotton dress make it, early spring
                    C           D
For awhile she'll be, mine again
                             G   Em 
If you can Paint Me A Birmingham
                     C      G
Oh Paint Me A Birmingham.
