A/E            A6
You make a nice piece of art,
        F#m             G
I wanna nail my colours up next to yours
D                    E
Splash me over your canvas,
Bm       C#m     D   E
Chalk me up to experience

[Verse 2]
             A/E         A6
I don't know much about art,
      F#m               G
But I guess i know what I like
  D               E
I do like Egon Schiele,
Bm     C#m        D       E
Louise Bourgeois, and Man Ray

[Chorus]
A6              A/E
Mix me with your media,
A6          A/E
Mix me into your life
A6             A/E
Nothing here gets easier,
G                F#      F
When you drop me in, the mix,
                 E
Of your artistic vice

[Instrumental]

A/E A6

Bm C#m D E

[Verse 3]
             A/E         A6
You say that art is your life,
              F#m              G
Yeah, but the washing up needs doing
      D                 E
And I think I should be hoovering,
        Bm         C#m        D     E
Cause a paintbrush seems like tinkering

[Verse 4]
         A/E          A6
But if I picture it right,
             F#m              G
You say that art makes life worth living
      D                   E
And I dont think thats a given,
      Bm
But I must say
C#m           D        E
You brush me up the right way

[Outro]

A6              A/E
Mix me with your media,
A6          A/E
Mix me into your life
A6                 A/E
This song could get seedier,
G           G# A
And I think it might,
G              G# A
Cause you look alright,
G                G#  A
So let's stay up all night,
A6                     A/E
And bring the world to rights
