Transcribed by Daniel Meijer
Watch the key change in the bridge, the chords I’ve written are correct —
so even though the song is full of Dm’s, it really IS a D in there…
To fill the verses (esp 3rd verse and outro), play this line under the G
chord:
e———
b-3-2-1-0-
g———
Intro:
Dm G Cm F Bb Eb Ab Db Dm G Dm G
Verse:
G
She paints pictures on the wall
G
She eats all of the garden
G
And has an aversion to conviction
G
She calls her dog «The Bear.»
Chorus:
Dm G Cm
In love with this girl
F Bb
and with her town as well
Eb Ab
Walking ’round this rainy city
Db Dm G
What a pity there’s things to do at home
Dm G
Things to do at home
G
She paints pictures on the wall
G
I awake to see the feelings
G
From the night before
G
She eats all of the garden

It’s a jungle out there
G
And we won’t return by dawn.

Bridge:
Bb G Dm F
If I had three lives
Eb F C G
I’d marry her in two

I’m dreaming of a time
Eb F D
When we sit when the music stops
G
She has an aversion to conviction
G

Wont pay her fines

And walks me with him to the corner

In her pyjamas
