Paint Me A Birmingham Uke tab by Tracy Lawrence

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

Chorus
      G
Could you 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 her there in the front yard swing
      Em
Cotton dress make it, early spring
      C  D
For a while she'll be, mine again
      G
If you can Paint Me A Birmingham

Verse: 2
  G    C
He looked at me, with knowing eyes
  D      G
Then took a canvas from a bag there by his side
  G    C
Picked up a brush, and said to me
  D      G
Son just where in this picture would you like to be
  C    D
I said if there's any way you can
  C        D
Could you paint me back into her arms again.

Chorus
      G
Could you 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 her there in the front yard swing
      Em
Cotton dress make it, early spring
      C  D
For a while she'll be, mine again
      G
If you can Paint Me A Birmingham
