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 
G 
It's a jungle out there 
G 
And we won't return by dawn. 
 
 
Dm  G             Cm 
In love with this girl 
    F               Bb

In love with this girl 
    F               Bb

Walking 'round this rainy city 
Db                  Dm              G

Bridge: 
 
Bb   G    Dm       F 
If I had three lives 
Eb        F      C  G 
I'd marry her in two 
     Bb       G    Dm  F 
I'm dreaming of a time 
Eb                   F     D 
When we sit when the music stops 
 
 
G 
She has an aversion to conviction 
G 
She's more confused than ever 
G 
Wont pay her fines 
G 
And wonders when the cops will get her 
G 
She calls her dog the bear 
G 
And walks me with him to the corner 
G 
In her pyjamas 
 
 
Dm  G             Cm 
In love with this girl

What a pity there's things to do at home

In love with this girl 
    F               Bb  
and with her town as well 
 Eb                  Ab         
Walking 'round this rainy city

What a pity there's things to do at home 
Dm              G 
Things to do at home 
 
 
Outro: 
 
G 
She paints pictures on the wall 
G 
I awake to see the feelings

She calls her dog the bear 
G 
And walks me with him to the corner 
G 
In her pyjamas
