This is tablature — fret positions rather than chord names. Wide lines scroll sideways on their own, so the page never does.

Jets To Brazil - Empty Picture Frame

This one has got the same theme as the other contribution with a few differences and an added solo.

The solo on the recording actually has two guitars. I only tabbed the lead for simplicities sake.

(For this verse just run down each chord just once)

D

I just found the frame

G

Where I took your picture away

D (short awkward pause)

In my wallet

A

Like a saint from some other place

D D7

That picture repays

G Gm

My eyes as they glaze

D A D

Thousand lashes from a love long gone away

(Here strum each chord with the pattern of v v v^v^ Where v is downstroke and ^ is upstroke

except the last Gm which is strummed only once)

G Gm

I'll know that you're gone for good

D

When the dawn kicks me awake

D A G D

I'll dress and move on put on what i can take

Em F#m G Gm

So take and get on you sweet thing

(Here play a combonation of root notes fiths and struming)

D G

Now I've got the frame and some baggage I claimed

D A

I came home to a world sadly changed

D D7 G Gm

so I got stoned until I thought this house a home

D A D

But when I came down I found myself alone

G Gm

I'll know that you're gone for good

D

When the dawn kicks me alive

A G D

I know we'll go on somehow we'll both survive

Em F#m G Gm

So take and get on you sweet thing
