DUKE SPECIAL - PORTRAIT from the album "Songs from the deep forest"

Original Tab by Chris Walker 
Arranged for Guitar - No Capo - Standard Tuning

Intro: Bm F#m G D (3x) (play as barre chords)

D
Paint my picture if you must
Please remember to be kind.
G                                                 D
'Cause darling, your broken heart was never on my mind.
Paint me with a villain heart
Like some cruel valentine
G                                              D
But darling, your broken heart was never on my mind.

           Bm        F#m
And when you feel the clash, 
         G            D  
And you don't want me around
          Bm         F#m 
Could you endure the rasp as
G                                  D
kisses filled with fibreglass rain down

D
Heavy as a hummingbird
But more difficult to find
     G                                        D
Well darling,your broken heart was never on my mind.

Mister Castle come on! - Clarinet solo 
Chords underneath are: Bm   (climb slowly thru) F#m and G reaching D

D
Clumsy as a ragtime clown
Or a dancing Frankenstein
     G                                         D  
Well darling,your broken heart was never on my mind

            Bm       F#m  G                 D      
So pull this canvas down beneath that angry moon
       Bm         F#m 
As you endure the sound of 
G                              D
One more singer singing out of tune.
Out of tune.

D
So paint my picture if you must
Not forgetting to be kind.
G                                                 D
'Cause darling, your broken heart was never on my mind.
