Paint Me On Velvet
By Dub Miller
Written By Hank Card & Conrad Deisler

                 C                    G
I'm a man of few words but a few is enough 
                    D                         C                         G
A man don't have to talk, he just gets up and walks when the going gets rough 
                       C                               G
I've got feelings down deep, still you think you don't care 
                     D                         C                         G 
Well I've made up my mind, gon’ to leave you behind and start living out there


Chorus:
               C                 G
So paint me on velvet and do not disguise 
                  D                                   G
The bright silver teardrops that you've brought to these eyes 
                   C                               Em    C
Hang me out by the roadside for the whole world to see 
          G          C           G        D          G 
Jesus and Elvis, the Confederate flag and Willie and me


Ran away to a motel but before I checked in 
Met a bouncer named Steve and decided to leave 
For a gathering of men with our drums in our hands 
And our hearts on our sleeves we stood around in the rain 
Just sharing our pain and learning to grieve

Chorus
