Brian Burns - Painted By Memory
Capo 3
[C]Well look here I drew a picture of the o[F]ne who went a[Dm]way
[C]I had no one to talk to but [G]sure had a lot to say
[C]She didn't leave a photograph so I'll t[F]ell you hones[Dm]tly
[C]That this had to be[G] Painted by [F]memor[C]y
Chorus
[F]And those are the eyes that never want to see me a[C]gain
[F]And those are the lips that said my heart would m[G]end
[C]It may not look just like her but d[F]on't blame [Dm]me
[C]Because it had to be[G] painted by [F]memor[C]y
Oh I know that this could never be called a work of art
But in some way I could just display the canvas of my heart
Well you'd know I did the best I could and you'd be proud of me
Because this had to be painted by memory
Chorus
I'm not a grand old painter so excuse the artistry
Because it had to be painted by memory
