[Verse]

E B
I bought this camera
E B
to take pictures of my love
G#m F#
Now that he's gone
*
I don't have anybody to take pictures of
E B
Along some highway
E B
is pretty good subjects
G#m F# *
I'm gonna make myself make use of this thing


[Chorus]
(Not really necessary, but can play 5h6 on G string together with backup vocals for the part with no guitar)

I'm taking landscapes
I'm taking still lifes
E D#m C#m
I'm taking bad self portraits
F#
of a lonely woman

E B E B G#m F# *


[Verse]

E B
I've spent my life
E B
so lost on lovin'
G#m F# &
I could have been a painter or a president
E B
But after twenty-five years
E B
I should be good at something
G#m F# &
Gone are the days of me being so innocent


[Chorus]

I'm taking night classes
I'm making sculptures
E D#m C#m
I'm painting bad self portraits
F#
of a lonely woman

E B E B G#m F# &
E B E B G#m F# *


[Verse]

I bought this camera
to take pictures of my love
Now that he's gone
I don't know what to do with this thing, well
B D# G# F#
I don't care about the time or money
E D#m (mute)
I just never thought that I'd be
through with this love


[Bridge]

Stuck taking landscapes
Stuck making still lifes
Stuck making sculptures
E D#m C#m
I'm out here taking bad self portraits
F#
of a lonely woman
E B C#m F#
Bad self portraits of a lonely girl
E D#m C#m F#
Sad self portraits of a lonely woman

E B E B G#m F# x 2
