                   Must I paint you a picture

                        (Billy Bragg)

intro: C - G - Am

C           G         F

It's bad timeing and me

           G                          C

We find a lot of things out this way

       G

And there's you

           F                  G

A little black cloud in a dress

C          G

The temptation

                Am           F

To take the precious things we have a part

     C             G    C

To see how they work

            G                          Am          F   C

Must be resisted for they never fit together again

G                       Am

If this is rain let it fall on me and drown me

G                     Am           G

If these are tears let them fall

                     C       G   Am

Must I paint you a picture

                    C       G   Am

About the way that I feel

                              C          Am   G

You know that my love for you is strong girl

                              C      Am   G

You know that my love for you is real

C            G               F

It took a short walk and a talk

                G                 C

To change the rules of engagement

               G                      F       G

While you searched frantically for reverse

C           G

And then claiming

        Am           F           C         A

That virtue never tested is no virtue at all

C      G                Am

And so I lost my ignorance

F-G                                  Am

   And now the bells across the river chime out your name

G                      Am    G

I look across to them again     (chorus)

Em                            C

All your friends sais come down

It will never fly

                F

And on that imperfect day

              G

We threw it all away

Em                   Am

Crisis after crisis, with such intensity

F                                   G

This would never happen if we lived by the sea

C        G                       F

Most important decisions in life

               G                   C

Are made between two people in bed

          G                  F   G

I found that at my own expense

C            G

And when I see you

           Am             F             C         G      C

You juts turn around and walk away like we never met

   G                  Am      F

Oh we used to be so brave

G                             Am                      G

I dreamt the wolrd stopped turning as we climbed the hill

                       Am                            G

I dreamt impossible dreams that we were lovers still  (chorus)
