intro: G G G D F#m G

        D                    F#m
Well she's kind of like an artist
G                D
Sittin' on the floor
G                        D
Never finishes,  she abandons
G               D
Never shows a soul
           D                   F#m
And she's kind of like a movie
G                   D
Everyone rushes to see
       G                     D
And no one understands it
G                  D
Sittin' in their seats

  F#m                          G
She opens her mouth to speak and
      F#m                   Bm
What comes out's a mystery
 G                            F#m
Thought about, an' I've understood
    G                  D        F#m    G
She's achin'   to be

         D                         F#m
Well she dances alone in nightclubs
G                       D
Every other day of the week
G                           D
People look right through her
G                      D
Baby doll check your cheek
         D                      F#m
And she's kind of like a poet
  G                      D
Who finds it hard to speak
G                D
Poems come so slowly
        G                 D
Like the colors down a sheet  (chorus)

A                                   G
I've been achin' for a while now, friend
A                          G     D    F  G  D
I've been achin' hard for years

(break use verse chords 1X)

         D                   F#m
Well she's kind of like an artist
    G                   D
Who uses paints no more
   G                              D
And never show what you're doing
G               D
Never show a soul
       F#m                    G
Yeah I saw one of your pictures
         F#m                     Bm
There was nothin' that I could see
     G               F#m
If no one's on your canvas
G                   D
Well, I'm achin' to be
     F#m                 G
She closes her mouth to speak and
    F#m             Bm
Closes her eyes to see
     G              F#m
Thought about an' only love and
     G         D         F#m     G
She's achin' to be
G              D      F#m    G
  Just like me
