Painted Ladies Tab

by Ian Thomas


Painted Ladies (Ian Thomas Band)
  (chorded by Joe Pezzola)

There are three chords in this song,  -  -  ,and its 
for a beginner to play through with confidence.
(The electric keyboard at the beginning doesn't sound good on acoustic guitar. I just 
up at the rhythm section and go from there)(This corrects the chord progression in the 
and adds the missing chord for line three of the main verses)

 
I remember setting out just to see what I could see
Streetcars rolling by and airplanes flying high they all meant nothing to me
 
No one ever looked my way or knew that I was there
 
I kept walking and the rain kept raining until all the streets were bare

 ............
Ooh ooh, feeling fine mama
 ..........................
Painted ladies and a bottle of wine mama
 ............
Ooh ooh, feeling good mama
 ...............................
They took my money like I knew they would
-
 ...........
La la la la, la, la la
 ...........
La la la la, la-a-a-a
 ...........
La la la la, la, la la
 ...........
La la la la, la-a-a-a

City lights were shining on me through my window pane
I kept thinking 'bout the day when I'd be home again
 
Rocking chairs and summer fairs and swimming in the sea
 
I kept drinking, sinking, till there was nothing left of me
