Intro: F F Dm C 

Verse 1:
Am        Bb      F        C
Oh, what a gift it is to be noticed
         Am        Bb      F  C
But it's nothin’ to do with me
G                                  Bb
 You've got to wonder if there's a reason to believe

Chorus:
       F F   Dm      C          Bb
It’s a life---time of learnin' to paint by numbers
    G                    F
And watchin' the colours run

Instrumental:
   F   Dm C 
   Bb G Bb G

Verse 2:
F                 F 
 It's a little bit complicated
    Dm                         C 
When they put an image in your head, and now you're stuck with it
F                 F 
 You're the luckiest, oh, the irony
Dm          C             F       F             Dm              C 
Holdin' the weight of the American children whose hearts you break
Am      Bb   F           C
Was it a tragedy when you told her
Am           Bb     F     C
"I'm not even thirty-three"?
G                               Bb
 a little self-compassion and a life within your means

Bridge:
       F F   Dm      C           Bb
It’s a life---time of pickin’ from one or the other
 G              F F   Dm C         Bb  G
Kids with water guns,     watch them run

Chorus:
       F F   Dm      C          Bb
It’s a life---time of learnin' to paint by numbers
    G                    F
And watchin' the colours run

Outro:
   F   Dm C
