Oh, the streets of Rome
G C G
Are filled with rubble
D G C G
Ancient footprints are everywhere
C G
You can almost think that you're seeing double
D C G
On a cold dark night on the spanish stairs
D G C G
Got to hurry on back to my hotel room
D G C G
Where I got me a date with Botticelli's niece
C G
Yeah, she promised that she'd be right there with me
D G C G
When I paint my masterpiece
Oh the hours that I've spent inside the coliseum
Dodging lions and wasting time
Oh these mighty kings of the jungle I can hardly stand to see'em
Yes, it sure has been a long hard climb
Train wheels runnin through the back of my memory
When I ran on the hilltop following a pack of wild geese
Someday everything's gonna be smooth like a rhapsody
When I paint my masterpiece
A D A A D A
I left Rome and landed in Brussels
E A D A
On plane ride so bumpy that I almost cried
A D A
Clergymen in uniform and young girls pulling bustles
E A
Everyone was there to greet me when I stepped inside
E A D A
Newspaper men Eating candy
E A
Had to be held down by big police
A D A
Someday everything's gonna be different
E A
When I paint my masterpiece
