Intro: C7
C7 F C7
Now Picasso said in 1910, I'm gonna paint me a mandolin
C7
It could be cubes it could be curves
C7 F C7
I like to mix paint with nerve
C7
I load my brush and fire away
Paint me a hole in the light of day
G
Well you can play it straight or play it from left field
Am F
You got to play it just the way you feel
G
Come on boys, play it again
Am F
Play it on Picasso's mandolin
C7
Well it's colouring books and drinking wine
F C7
It's hard to stay between the lines
C7
There ain't no rule if you don't break it
F C7
There ain't no chance if you don't take it
C7
The damdest thing he'd ever heard
Was trying to learn a thing from a Mockingbird
G
Well you can play it straight or play it from left field
Am F
You got to play it just the way you feel
G
Come on boys, play it again
Am F
Play it on Picasso's mandolin
C7
Now Picasso said before he died
F C7
There's one more painting I'd like to try
C7
Well the doctor held is breathe and then
F C7
Picasso nailed a mandolin
C7
He was born in Spain and died in France
He was not scared of baggy pants
G
Well you can play it straight or play it from left field
Am F
You got to play it just the way you feel
G
Come on boys, play it again
Am F
Play it on Picasso's mandolin
G
Play it straight or play it from left field
Am F
You got to play it just the way you feel
G
Come on boys, play it again
Am F
Play it on Picasso's mandolin
