YOU DON T HAVE TO PAINT ME A PICTURE
written by Snuff Garrett, Leon Russell, and Roger Tillison
performed by Gary Lewis and the Playboys
tab transcribed by Collins Crapo
G / C / G / / / 2 / C / G / / / 2 / / / C / G / C / D7 / G / / /
You don t have to paint me a picture
The handwritin s on the wall
It s very plain to see that you don t love me
No, you never loved me at all
Verse 2:
You ve been out with other fellas
You think that I don t know
Well, you don t have to paint a rose on me
Cause I knew it long ago
CHORUS:
I have tried to make excuses for the things you do
I ve tried to be fair in every way
It s no use pretendin that you haven t been untrue
It s over now, so I ll be on my way
Verse 3:
I don t need a fortuneteller
I don t need a crystal ball
It s very plain to see that you don t love me
No, you never loved me at all
