Sweet Painted Lady - Elton John w/ Lyrics Chords

_ I'm back on dry land once again.
_ _ [G] Opportunity awaits me like [Bm] a rat in a drain.
[F] We're all hunting honey with money [C] to burn. _ _
_ _ Just [Cm] a short time to show you [G] the tricks that we've [Am] learned. _ _
[Bm] _ _ [D] _ [G] If the boys all behave themselves here,
Well, there's pretty young ladies [Bm] and beer in the rear.
[F] You won't need a girl to sleep in [C] tonight. _ _
_ _ _ [Cm] Oh, the prices are charged, we'll see you all [Am] right. _ _ _
_ [Bm] _ _ [G] So she lays down beside me again,
_ The sweet painted lady, the one with no name.
[F] Many have used her, many [C] still _ do.
_ _ _ _ [Cm] There's a place in the world [G] for a woman like [Am] you. _ _
_ [Bm] _ _ _ [G] Oh, sweet _ [F#] painted lady, _ _ [F] seems it's always been [E] the same.
_ _ [Am] Getting paid [D] or being lame, [G] yes, that's the name of [Am] the game.
_ [G] Oh, sweet _ [F#] painted lady, _ _ [F] seems it's always been [E] the same.
_ _ [Am] Getting paid [D] or being lame, [G] yes, that's the name of the [Am] _ [D] game.
_ [G] _ _ _
_ [D] _ _ Forgetters [G] will have gone very soon.
Just forget we ever slept in your rooms.
[F] And we'll leave the smell of the sea in your [C] _ beds.
_ _ _ _ [Cm] Well, it was just a job [G] and nothing in it [Am] said. _ _
_ [D] _ _ So [G] she lays down beside me _ again,
The sweet painted lady, the one with no name.
[F] Many have used her, many still [C] do. _ _
_ _ _ _ [Cm] There's a place in the world [G] for a woman like [Am] you. _
_ [D] _ _ _ _ [G] Oh, sweet painted [F#] lady, _ [F] seems it's always been the [E] same.
_ [Am] Getting paid [D] or being lame, [G] yes, that's the name [Am] of the game.
_ [G] Oh, sweet [F#] painted lady, _ [F] seems it's always been [E] the same.
