Better Than A Picture Chords

(ver. 1)
John Williamson
Intro/Bridge:  E  B7  E  B7

          E               B7    E              B7
          Somethings happening, can we make it last?
          E                   B7          A            B7
          I won't forget this moment, the day is goin' fast.

Verse 1
               E               A               E       A
          I've never seen a sunset like this before,
          E              A               E        A
          One long cloud sleepin' in the valley.
                  E             A                       B7
          And the heaven that I see, belongs to you and me,
          A                     B7             E     A  E  A
          So much better than a picture on the wall.

Chorus: 
                   E               A                              B7
          And it's not your summer blue, and it's not your winter green.
               A                 E    A 
          It's more like emerald.
          A         E                         A
          It's been waiting for our hearts to fall, 
             C#m             B7
          So we would see it all.
          A                     B7             E      A  E  A
          So much better than a picture on the wall.

Verse 2
                    E              A             E       A
          And we'll never see a sunset like this again,
            E               A                E     A
          Tomorrow it could rain and thunder down,
          E               A                               B7
          Followed by the steam, and the trickling little stream.
          A                     B7             E      A  E  A
          So much better than a picture on the wall.

Chorus: 
                   E               A                              B7
          And it's not your summer blue, and it's not your winter green.
               A                 E  A  
          It's more like emerald.
          A         E                         A
          It's been waiting for our hearts to fall,
             C#m             B7
          So we would see it all.
          A                     B7             E      A  E  A
          So much better than a picture on the wall.

Bridge
          E               B7    E              B7

          E                   B7          A            B7
          I won't forget this moment, the day is goin' fast.
