Pictures on my wall
F#m
In fifteen different colors
Starting with vermillion
The first flower of the summer
And I don’t think I’ll be finished
’Til I’v[-D]e begun to understand this
With you stretched out in the sunlight
As your laughter fills my canvas

The sun falls in like fingers
F#m
On your back against the blinds
Tracing out your hours
It is filling in your lines
Well your curl defines your spiral
As[Dsus2-D] you sillouette the window
And my brush forgets itself
Spills lines upon your pillow

Finds you standing in the middle
F#m G transition to Em
Of lines you laid down before
Trying to paint my picture into yours
F#m F#m F#m

Let me paint you in the corner
F#m
As your shoulders trap the light
See the sunset filling golden up
The wineskin of the night
I have seen your eyes in paintings
As[Dsus2-D] cathedrals cried hosanna
Let me paint your face in frescos
Hang your hair like candellabras

See you standing in the middle
F#m G transition to Em
Of lines you laid down before
Trying to paint my picture into yours
F#m F#m F#m
[A-Asus-A]
In the morning let me find you
F#m
As I call to you by name
Your body warm beside me
Not imprisoned in a frame
I could never find the colors
Or[Dsus2-D] the light to finally paint you
With those roses in your hair
The smell of wine and mortal perfume

As you’re standing in the middle
F#m G transition to Em
Of lines you laid down before
Trying to paint my picture into yours
[Dsus-D]F#m F#m
F#m F#m
End strumming D a few times
