this is norah jones’ “painter song” and i think the “advanced” difficulty level is
probably worth it here .
if only i could get that nice accordion bit in the middle to sound right!
i couldn’t get ultimate guitar to recognise the G7#5 ,
so i’ve had to write it as G7 ( #5 ) so that it’ll transpose properly , but you get the idea .

tune down 3 half steps

G7 ( #5 ) Cmaj7
if i were a painter
Fmaj7 D7
i would paint my reverie
G7 E7 Am7 D7 Dm7
if that’s the only way for you to be with me

G7 ( #5 ) Cmaj7
we’d be there together
Fmaj7 D7
just like we used to be
G7 E7 Am D7 Dm7
underneath the swirling skies for all to see

G7 ( #5 ) D7 [ ch ] F#dim/E [ /Ch ]
and i’m dreaming of a place
F Cmaj7
where i could see your face
Bdim ( 7 ) C#dim ( 7 ) Dm7 Em7 Fmaj7 F#dim ( 7 ) Em G#dim ( 7 ) Am7
and – i – think – my – brush – would – take – me – there
Dm7
but only . . .

G7 ( #5 ) Cmaj7
if i were a painter
F C/E D7
and could paint a memory
G7 [ ch ] E7/G# [ /Ch ] Am7 D7
i’d climb inside the swirling skies to be with you
G7 [ ch ] E7/G# [ /Ch ] Am7 D7 Dm7
i’d climb inside the skies to be with you

G7 ( #5 ) D7 [ ch ] F#dim/E [ /Ch ]
and i’m dreaming of a place
F Cmaj7
where i could see your face
Bdim ( 7 ) C#dim ( 7 ) Dm7 Em7 Fmaj7 F#dim ( 7 ) Em G#dim ( 7 ) Am7
and – i – think – my – brush – would – take – me – there
Dm7
but only . . .

G7 ( #5 ) Cmaj7
if i were a painter
F C/E D7
and could paint a memory
G7 [ ch ] E7/G# [ /Ch ] Am7 D7
i’d climb inside the swirling skies to be with you
Dm7 G7 Cmaj9
i’d climb inside the skies to be with you
