Recorded by Hank Williams, Sr.
Arranged by Hank Williams, Sr.

CAPO: 2nd Fret/KEY: E/PLAY: D
[D] In the world`s mighty gallery of pictures
Hang the [G] scenes that are painted from life [D]
There`s pictures of love and of passion
Then there`s [E7] pictures of peace and of [A7] strife
There hang [D] pictures of youth and of beauty
Of old [G] age and the blushing young [D] bride
They all [G] hang on the wall - but the [D] saddest of all
Are the [A7] pictures from life`s other [D] side.

[D] Just a picture from life`s other side
Some-[G] one has fell by the way [D]
A life has gone out with the tide
That [E7] might have been happy some [A7] day
There`s a [D] poor old mother at home
She`s [G] watching and waiting a-[D] lone
Just [G] longing to hear - from a [D] loved one so dear
It`s just a [A7] picture from life`s other [D] side.

The first scene is that of a gambler
Who had lost all his money at play
An` he draws his dead mother`s ring from his finger
That she wore long ago on her wedding day
It`s his last earthly treasure, but he stakes it
Then he bows his head that his shame he may hide
But, when they lifted his head - they found he was dead
That`s just a picture from life`s other side.

Now the last scene is that by the river
Of a heart-broken mother and babe
As the harbor lights shine and they shiver
On an outcast whom no one will save
And yet, she was once a true woman
She was somebody`s darlin` and pride
God help her, she leaps - for there`s no one to weep
It`s just a picture from life`s other side.

EXTRA VERSE:
The next was a scene of two brothers
Whose pathways so diff`rent had led
One lived the life of a rich man
The other one begged for his bread
Then one night they met on the highway
"Your money or life", the thief cried
And then with his knife - took his own brother`s life
It`s just a picture from life`s other side.
