Sweet Painted Lady

I’m back on

dry land once again

Oppor

Gmaj7

tunity awaits me like a rat in the drain

Dm/G

We’re all hunting honey with

money to

burn

Just a

short time to show you the

tricks that we’ve l

earne

If the boys all behave themselves here

Well there’s pretty young ladies and beer in the rear

You won’t need a gutter to sleep in tonight

Oh the prices I charge here will see you alright

So she lays down beside me again

My sweet painted lady, the one with no name

Many have used her and many still do

There’s a place in the world for a woman like you

D+

weet painted

lady

Seems it’s always been the

same

Am7

Getting paid for

being

laid

Guess that’s the name of the

Am7

game

Forget us we’ll have gone very soon

Just forget we ever slept in your rooms

And we’ll leave the smell of the sea in your beds

Where love’s just a job and nothing is said
