Watercolors by Mal Blum 




                          Watercolors 






Intro: F C Am G (x4) (listen to the strum pattern)
           F               C
I would've meant it if I'd said it
       Am               G            F C Am G
But I didn't think to say it at the time
        F            C                 Am
And you never really said it with your mouth
         G                   F C Am G
And only one time with your eyes

              F            C               Am                    G
And you would get if you'd get it 'cause I know that you're the type
    F                 C               Am            G
Who gets it when they get it and they always get it right
             F C Am G
I hate that type
             F C Am G
I hate that type
         F               C
Now I am sitting in your bed
         Am             G               F C Am G
In your bedroom with my new homework machine
         F                 C                 Am
And I am playing with your cat with bits of string
         G             F C Am G
And I am waiting patiently
            F           C        Am            G           F
And you are out with a woman at exhibits about people like me
       C           Am          G            F C Am G (x2)
With a woman at exhibits about people like me

                F C Am G
And I don't get it 
         F C Am G
I don't get it
         F C Am G
I don't get it
         F C Am G
I don't get it

        F             C             Am       G
'Cause you don't like art, you just buy and sell
        F                C              Am         G
And you wouldn't give it up if you were getting it well
     F                 C
So I brought this on myself
         Am      G
I can't say I disagree
          F          C             Am         G
Take that woman to exhibits about people like me
 F C Am G
Me
F       C             Am           G            F        C  
I am at home with my watercolors filling in my life with you
   Am       G
My life without
F       C             Am            G           F C Am G
I am at home with my watercolors while you are out


            F               C     Am G
I would've meant it if I'd said it
       F               C              Am G
But I didn't think to say it and I'm shy
      F             C     Am G
So I hid inside my t-shirt
      F                C                    Am G
And I looked the other way when you walked by
       F              C            Am            G
And I gathered up my things and I dusted off my bike
       F            C                   Am              G
And I found a quiet place where I could sit and i could write
              F C Am G
And I wrote this
              F C Am G
And I wrote this

               F               C
And you would get it if you'd get it
          Am                   G
'Cause I know that you're the type
     F                 C
Who gets it when they get it
          Am            G             F C Am G
And they never have to write it on paper
     F C Am G
On paper
        F              C            Am            G
But you never got it, never, not to tell you the truth
            F             C                   Am           G
'Cause you show up to my shows and think I'm singing about you
          F C Am G
And I'm not
           F C Am G
Oh no I'm not
             F C Am G
And I don't get it
         F C Am G
I don't get it
         F C Am G
I don't get it
        F C Am 
No, I don't

        F             C             Am       G
'Cause you don't like art, you just buy and sell
        F                C              Am         G
And you wouldn't give it up if you were getting it well
     F                 C
So I brought this on myself
         Am      G
I can't say I disagree
            F            C              Am                 G     F C Am G
Bring that woman to my concert and she tells you that she likes me
           F C Am G
She likes me

     F       C             Am           G            F        C  
Now I am at home with my watercolors filling in my life with you
   Am       G
My life without
F       C             Am            G           F C Am G
I am at home with my watercolors while you are out

     F       C              Am             G
And all my friends and the issues that we face
           F             C             Am             G
You wanna stick us in a box, you wanna put us in our place
           F             C          Am             G
And maybe hang us on a wall, then leave me out to dry
         F              C        Am            G   F C Am G
Was I a joke? Was I a freak? Or just too much alive?
 F C Am G 
Alive

F       C             Am           G            F        C  
I am at home with my watercolors filling in my life with you
   Am       G
My life without
F       C             Am            G         F C Am G
I am at home with my watercolors blotting it out
