Painting This Old Town Blue
Recorded by Crystal Gayle
Written by William Davidson

C         Am           D7        G7
I've been sittin' here all night long
C            Am      D7
Watching the night unfold
  C      Am       G7
I hear a sad sentimental song
C             Am          C   G7
What a lovely way to grow old

A7                           Dm
All that's left for me it to reminisce 
D7                       G7
Too late to stop too far away to kiss
     C            E7  A7
I'll forget about you after I'm through
D7            G7       C   G7
Painting this old town blue

  C       Am         D7       G7
I gotta a lotta good feelings babe
C        Am         D7
It's got nowhere to go
   C      Am            G7
If it was love you were stealing babe
  C    Am            C  G7
I just forgot to let go

    A7                   Dm
But all I need is just a little more time
D7                         G7
A little less memory and a little more wine
     C            E7  A7
I'll forget about you after I'm through
D7            G7       C   G7
Painting this old town blue
       
  C      Am              D7        G7
A velvet haze is falling around my head
C            Am    C    G7
And clouding up my view
C              Am          G7
Your memory is flowing the wine is red
C        Am       C
Honey my eyes are too

    A7                   Dm
But all I need is just a little more time
D7                         G7
A little less memory and a little more wine
     C            E7  A7
I'll forget about you after I'm through
D7            G7       C   A7
Painting this old town blue

        D7            G7       C
Oh yeah painting this old town blue
     A7  D7            G7       C
Whoo hoo painting this old town blue
