Lyrics
WHEN SHE PICTURES ME
D
A reckless fool this time.
D7
Crossed way over the line.
G Em
Her worst nightmare came to be.
A7
To tears I drove her.
A7 Em A7 D
Her eyes run over, when she pictures me.
D
She pictures strange perfume
D7
a steamy motel room.
G Em
As I play out my fantasy
A7
A no-good rover.
A7 Em A7 D D7
Made her eyes run over, when she pictures me.
G Em A7 Bm7
A shining star in her picture.
G Em A7 D D7
Framed in love, the apple of her eye.
G Em A7 Bm7
Like a falling star I dropped out of the picture.
G Em A7
Fading in her heart to slowly die.
D
I stand broken at her door.
D7
Donâ??t deserve her anymore.
G Em
Can she accept my apology?
A7
A hurtinâ?? web I wove her.
A7 Em A7 D D7
Made her eyes run over, when she pictures me.
G Em A7 Bm7
Thereâ??s an unknown face still haunting in that picture,
G Em A7 D D7
with a humble smile, and honest, caring eyes.
G Em A7 Bm7
When his true colors show in the picture,
G Em A7
I just hope itâ??s me when the painting dries.
D
As the beam of lovelight shows,
D7
in her heart of hearts she knows.
G Em
She forgave me, tearfully.
A7
With loving arms I hold her.
A7 Em A7 D
Her eyes still run over, when she pictures me.
