Paint me a Birmingham
Capo 4th fret
D MajorD 
E minorEm
He was sitting there his brush in hand
A/D 
A augmentedA D MajorD
Painting waves as they dance upon the sand
D MajorD E minorEm
With every stroke he brought to life
A/D A augmentedA D MajorD
The deep blue of the ocean against the morning sky
E minorEm A/D A augmentedA
I asked him if he only painted ocean scenes
G+G A/D A augmentedA
He said for twenty dollars, I'll paint you anything
D MajorD
Could you paint me a Birmingham?
B minorBm
Make it look just the way I plan
G+G
A augmentedA little house on the edge of town
A augmentedA
Porch goin' all the way around
D MajorD
Put her there on the front yard swing
B minorBm
Cotton dress, make it early spring
G+G A/D A augmentedA
For awhile she'll be mine aga---in
D MajorD
If you could paint me a Birmingham
D MajorD E minorEm

And took a canvas from a bag there by his side

Picked up a brush and said to me

Son just where in this picture would you like to be?
E minorEm A/D A augmentedA
I asked him if there's anyway you can

Could you paint me a Birmingham?

Make it look just the way I plan

A augmentedA little house on the edge of town
A/D A augmentedA
Porch goin' all the way around
D MajorD
Put her there on the front yard swing

For awhile she'll be mine aga---in
