The Picture
Tono: Original
C C/B Am
There are pictures on the piano
F G
Pictures of the family
C C/B Am
Mostly my kids but there's an old
F C
Picture of you and me
Em F Fadd9
You were five and I was six
Em G
In 1952
C C/B Am
That was forty years ago
G C
How could it be true?
C C/B Am
We were sitting outside drawing
F G
At a table meant for cards
C C/B Am
And it must have been in autumn
F G
Falling leaves in the front yard
Em F Fadd9
With a shoe box full of crayons
Em G
Full of colors oh so bright
C C/B Am
In a picture in a plastic frame
G C
A snapshot black and white
C C/B Am
You were looking at my paper
F G
Watching what I drew
C C/B Am
It was natural: I was older
F C
Thirteen months more than you
Em F Fadd9
A brother and a sister
Em G
A little boy and girl
C C/B Am
And whoever took that picture
G C
Captured our own world
C C/B Am
A brother needs a sister
F G
To watch what he can do
C C/B Am
To protect and to torture
F C
To boss around it's true
Em F Fadd9
But a brother will defend her
Em G
For a sister's love is pure
C C/B Am
Because she thinks he's wonderful
G C
When he is not so sure
C C/B Am
In the picture there's a fender
F G
Of our old Chevrolet
C C/B Am
Or Pontiac, our dad would know
F G
Surely he could say
Em F Fadd9
But dad is dead and we grow old
Em G
It's true that time flies by
C C/B Am
And in forty years the world has changed
G C
As well as you and I
