A  D  A 
D  A  E  A 
D 

Verse 1:

A D A Oh, the streets of Rome are filled with rubble D A E A Ancient footprints are everywhere D A D A You can almost think that you're seein' double D A E A On a cold, dark night on the Spanish Stairs E7 A D Got to hurry on back to my hotel room E7 A Where I've got me a date with A pretty little girl from Greece D A D A She promised that she'd be right there with me D A E A When I paint my masterpiece

Verse 2:

A D A Oh, the hours I've spent inside the Coliseum D A E A Dodging lions and wastin' time D A D A Oh, those mighty kings of the jungle I could hardly stand to see 'em D A E A Yes, it sure has been a long, hard climb E7 A Train wheels runnin' through the back of my memory E7 A D When I ran on the hilltop following a pack of wild geese D A D A Someday, everything is gonna sound like a rhapsody D A E A When I paint my masterpiece Bridge Dm A Sailin'round the world in a dirty gondola C#m D E D A B7 E7 I’d rather be back in the land of Coca Cola!

Verse 3:

A D A I left Rome and landed in Brussels D A E A On a plane ride so bumpy that I almost cried D A D A Clergymen in uniform and young girls pullin' muscles D A E A Everyone there to greet me when I stepped inside E7 A D Newspapermen eating candy E7 A D had to be held down by big police D A D A Someday,everything is gonna be different D A E D A Bm A When I paint my masterpiece
