[Verse 1]
    F     C          G        Am
Hello! Salute! It’s me, your Duke
       F         C               G           Am
And I made something that’s to show you how I feel
    F      C        G      Am
Hello! Hello! It’s me, Picasso
        F                C               G             Am
I will paint my words of love with your name on every wall

[Chorus]
          F                       C
When you leave my colours fade to gray
          G             Am
Ooaa ooaa eh, ooaa ooaa ooaa eh,
       F                     C
Every word of love I used to say
       G             Am
Now I paint it everyday
          F                       C
When you leave my colours fade to gray
             G                    Am
Little lover stays or all colours fade to gray
       F                     C
Every word of love I used to say
       G             Am
Now I paint it everyday

[Verse 2]
   F         C         G          Am
I sold my strings, my song, and dreams
       F           C                   G          Am
And I bought some paints to match the colours of my love
    F      C        G            Am
Hello! Hello! It’s me again, Picasso
          F              C               G             Am
I will spray my words of love with your name on every wall

[Chorus]
          F                       C
When you leave my colours fade to gray
          G             Am
Ooaa ooaa eh, ooaa ooaa ooaa eh,
       F                     C
Every word of love I used to say
       G             Am
Now I paint it everyday
          F                       C
When you leave my colours fade to gray
             G                    Am
Little lover stays or all colours fade to gray
       F                     C
Every word of love I used to say
       G             Am
Now I paint it everyday

Ma Ya Hi! Ma Ya Hu! Ma Ya Ho! Ma Ya Ha Ha!
       F         C         G         Am

Ooaa ooaa eh, ooaa ooaa ooaa eh,
       F                     C
Every word of love I used to say
       G             Am
Now I paint it everyday
          F                       C
When you leave my colours fade to gray
             G                    Am
Little lover stays or all colours fade to gray
       F                     C
Every word of love I used to say
       G             Am
Now I paint it everyday
