Paint Yourself

	  		
E 
You're always looking at yourself 
A                                E 
Deciding what you do not want to see 
    E 
You paint yourself with light at night 
A                      E 
You rewrite your history 
E 
The apartment that you got 
           A  
Has got no fire escape 
              E 
What will you do? 
              B 
What will you do? 
        E 
And the job that you've got 
             A           
Has made you work so hard 
               E 
You don't know who you are 
               B 
You don't know who you are 

A                          B                   
You say that you're taking nothing for granted 
               E            
But your plans don't change 
           A                               B 
And you're hoping that everything's easier 
                        E          
By the time you reach your old age 
A                                 
I'm trying to cool you like a fan 
           B                      E   
But you're making it so obvious I can't 
            A 
And there's always something 
               B                    E 
For you to get over when I disappear away 

A E A E A E  

E 
Your heart is tied up in a joke 
     A                        E 
And it's all whips, rums, and rain 
E                              A 
All the titles you so casually gave away 
                           E 
Will come back and be your name 
E 
You did forget your memory 
   A                         E 
Of all you promised you just yesterday
