G        C       D                   Em
I knew a painter in my younger days,

Bm                   C                   G       D7
A man who lived with brushes, sticks and stones.

G                         C
His days were filled with canvas scenes

D                       Em
Of browns and blues and meadow greens.

        Bm                   C      G
And the world just passed on by his door.

D                    G      G
He lived, but lived alone.



G                D                Em               Bm
And he'd come to town with his old wool cap pulled down.

C                 G                  D7        D7
Surrounded by the dogs that were his friends.

   G                  D           Em                     Bm
At times too drunk to stand, he'd shake familiar hands.

C                  G                      D7                   
And sit around the Esso station, 'til his loneliness would end.



G                 C   D                     Em
And I knew a painter, in my reckless days.

Bm               C             G      D7
Bristle bearded, humble on his feet.

G                  C         
A sympathetic, sad old elf,

D                        Em
He knew me better than I knew myself

Bm                    C   G
In the last days of my boyhood,

      D7            G        G
In my time upon the street.



G                    D        Em                   Bm
And long through the night, a faded yellow light,

           C          G                           D (arpeggio 2 bars)
Would burn inside the room where he would stand.

G                   D     Em                  Bm
And play the old victrola and drink his rusty wine.

       C               G                    D7
And conduct the Mozart music with his heart and shaking hand.


D                             G            Gsus4          G
But he could paint a picture, and he could capture life.

D               D/C                   G
And no one ever felt things more than he.

D                     D/C    G           D/F#      Em       Em/D
He was never much for roses, he'd sooner paint the thorns.

          C              C
'Cause he found a keener beauty there

C                      D
That no one else could see.



G                  C
Someone bought the house he lived in.

D              Em
Painted up the room he died in.

Bm                     C       G                         D
Swept away the cobwebs and the dust from off the floor.

G                       C
The children laugh, the seasons run,

D                    Em
Young lovers roll in midnight fun.

    Bm                C        G
But no one loves more than the one

D7                      G      G
Who paints the world no more.




G                    D        Em                   Bm
And long through the night, a faded yellow light,

           C          G                           D (arpeggio 2 bars)
Would burn inside the room where he would stand.

G                   D     Em                  Bm
And play the old victrola and drink his rusty wine.

       C               G                    D7
And conduct the Mozart music with his heart and shaking hand.



ENDING: Guitar only, rapidly picking between each chord for a half measure.
