http://paolabennet.bandcamp.com/ https://soundcloud.com/paola-bennet *** Chords: or transpose down 2 and capo 2 and play (easiest for beginning guitar or baritone uke) or transpose down 4 and capo 4 and play (easiest for most ukuleles) There's another chord after the in the verses and transitioning from verse to chorus, but I can't figure out what it is. I've marked the location with a ?. It sounds okay if you play the straight through but it's not 100% accurate there. Paola sings the first three lines acapella but the chords are the same as when she reprises it again in the end. He is chandeliers and velvet seats And the gentle echo of butterfly wings In drafty corners piled with silk and satin He's the kind of boy who eats alone ? Never speaks of love; he'd rather it be shown He lingers on long after you look at him ? Painted in gold, and silver-tongued My oh my, he's a precious one But even precious portraits can rattle their frames He says life imitates art, but they're not the same He'll give you the show, send the curtain down in flame He is rainy nights and cabarets ? He is honey and charm, wrapped in a smoky haze But careful, darling; all that smoke will blind you He is shining knight, and villain too ? He'll send thunder your way, then give the sky back its blue He'll let you run, but just so he can find you again Painted in gold, and silver-tongued My oh my, he's a precious one But even precious portraits can rattle their frames He says life imitates art, but they're not the same He'll give you the show, send the curtain down in flame But under all that fiery debris He is a tragedy in himself Wounded so deep That he wants to ruin somebody else You could almost feel sorry But you'd never quite reach No, you'd never quite reach Painted in gold, and silver-tongued My oh my, he's a precious one But even precious portraits can fall from their frames He says life imitates art, but they're not the same He'll give you the show, send the curtain down in flame Send it down in flame, send it down in flame. ? He is chandeliers, and velvet seats ? Quiet nights, but still he feels the sting In drafty corners you can hear him weep.
