Tom: C#m

     E                        B   B    E
Stop right where you are move ten feet back
  E                           B     B     E
A-way from the wall where the paint-ing’s at
        C#m                      B   B   A
I’m not here to explain what the art-ist felt
      E                       B  B   A
Oh, I can’t and I won’t and I ne-ver will


[Pre-Chorus]
    E         B          C#m
The museum of modern art
  C#m          B        A       E
I watch like a hawk pro-tecting priceless
E      B          A      E
Pieces brought to you in part
G#
By countless small donations from
A
Countless small vacations


[Chorus]
       E   B
I’m an art guard
       C#m B
I’m an art guard
       A   E
I’m an art guard
 B
(I guard the art)

(I guard the art)

(I guard the art)


[Verse 2]
E                 B  B E
Art all around me as I stand
  E                B B E
A 12-hour shift at 9 A-M
       C#m           B    B   A
And it all begins to look the same
    E               B     B   A
Per-haps I’ll under-stand one day


[Pre-Chorus]
  E       B           C#m
I finally see it clear
    C#m    B     A        E
The beauty in an abstract painting
E     B        A    E
As my world it disappears
G#
A toddler in a stroller
A
Destroys a priceless sculpture


[Chorus]
       E   B
I’m an art guard
       C#m B
I’m an art guard
       A   E
I’m an art guard
 B
(I guard the art)

(I guard the art)

(I guard the art)
       E   B
I’m an art guard
       C#m G#
I’m an art guard
       A   E
I’m an art guard
 B
(I guard the art)

(I guard the art)

(I guard the art)
 E
(I guard the art)

(I guard the art)

(I guard the art)

(I guard the art)
     E                        B   B    E
Stop right where you are move ten feet back

(I guard the art)
  E                           B     B     E
A-way from the wall where the paint-ing’s at

(I guard the art)
        C#m                      B   B   A
I’m not here to explain what the art-ist felt

(I guard the art)
      E                       B  B   E
Oh, I can’t and I won’t and I ne-ver will
