LA RE LA
Oh, the streets of Rome are filled with rubble
RE LA MI LA
Ancient footprints are everywhere
RE LA RE LA
You can almost think that you're seein' double
RE LA MI LA
On a cord, dark night on the Spanish Stairs
MI7 LA RE
Got to hurry on back to my hotel room
MI7 LA
Where I've got me a date with Botticelli's niece
RE LA RE LA
She promised that she'd be right there with me
RE LA MI LA
When I paint my masterpiece
Oh, the hours I've spent inside the Coliseum
Dodging lions and wastin' time
Oh, those mighty kings of the jungle
I could hardly stand to see 'em
Yes, it sure has been a long, hard climb
Train wheels runnin' through the back of my memory
When I ran on the hilltop following a pack of wild geese
Someday, everything is gonna be smooth like a rhapsody
When I paint my masterpiece
BRIDGE:
REm LA
Sailin'round the world in a dirty gondola
DO#m RE MI RE LA SI7 MI7
Oh to be back in the land of Coca Cola!
I left Rome and landed in Brussels
On a plane ride so bumpy that I almost cried
Clergymen in uniform and young girls pullin' muscles
Everyone was there to greet me when I stepped inside
Newspapermen eating candy had to be held down by big police Someday,
everything is gonna be different
RE LA MI RE LA SIm LA
When I paint my masterpiece
