[F] [Dm] [Bb] [F] He was [F]sittin' there, his [Bb]brush in hand [C]Paintin' waves as they danced, u[F]pon the sand With every stroke, he [Bb]brought to life The [C]deep blue of the ocean, against the [F]mornin' sky I [Bb]asked him if he only painted [C]ocean scenes He [Bb]said for twenty dollars, I'll [C]paint you anything. (Chorus:) Could you Paint Me A Birming[F]ham Make it look just the [Dm]way I planned A little house on the [Bb]edge of town Porch goin' all the [C]way around Put her there in the[F] front yard swing Cotton dress make it,[Dm] early spring For awhile she'll be[Bb], mine again[C] If you can Paint Me A Birming[F]ham.
