[Verse 1]
D A D A
Oh, the streets of Rome are filled with rubble,
E A
Ancient foot prints are everywhere.
D A D A
You could almost think that your seein' double,
E A
On the cold, dark night on the Spanish Stairs.
E E7 A
Gotta hurry on back to my hotel room,
E A D
Where I got me a date with a pretty little girl from Greece.
A D A
She promised she'd be there with me,
E A
When I paint my masterpiece.

[Verse 2]
D A D A
Oh, the hours we spent, inside the Coliseum.
E A D
Dodging lions, and a-wasting time,
A D A
Oh those mighty kings of the jungle, I could hardly stand to see'em
E E7 A
Yes it sure has been a long, hard climb.
E A
Train wheels a running through the back of my memory,
E A D
When I ran on a hilltop followin' a pack of wild geese,
A D A
Someday everything is gonna sound like a rhapsody
E A
When I paint my masterpiece.

Sailing round the world in a dirty gondola,

Oh to be back in the land of, Coca cola.
[Verse 3]
D A D A
Well I left Rome, and landed in Brussels,
E E7 A
On a plane ride so bumpy that I almost cried,
D A D A
Clergy men in uniform, and young girls pulling mussels,
E E7 A
Everyone was there to greet me when I stepped inside,
E A
Newspaper men eatin' candy,
E A D
Had to be held down by big police.
A D A
Someday, everything is gonna be different,
E A
When I paint my masterpiece.
