"Somebody Paints the Wall"

by Tracy Lawrence, from the album "Sticks and Stones"

Transcribed by Jason and Jennifer Hannan

Intro: D F#m D A

If my old [D]truck was a horse I’d [F#m]have to shoot it

Lord, the [G]day my ship came in, I was [F#m]waiting for a [D]train

Every time I get a grip I [F#m]always lose it

[Bm]I can’t find the sunshine for the [F#m]rain

And you [G]know I’m always saying I’m [F#m]sorry

But you [Bm]stand by me through it [F#m]all

Seems [D]every time I make my mark [A]somebody paints the [D]wall

Chorus:

Every [A]time I think I’m off and running, I’m barely up to a [D]crawl

Every [A]time I get a leg up on the ladder of success I [D]slip and fall

Like last [G]week down at the factory I was [Bm]up for a promotion

But the [F#m]boss’s little brother got the [D]call

Seems [D]every time I make my mark [A]somebody paints the [D]wall

Repeat Chorus

Seems [D]every time I make my mark [A]somebody always paints the [D]wall

Outro: D F#m D
