TITLE: Paint It Black
Lyrics and Chords
[Capo 3]
I see a red door and I want it painted black
No colors anymore I want them to turn black
I see the girls walk by dressed in their summer clothes
I have to turn my head until my darkness goes
/ Dm - A7 - / / DmC FC Dm - / DmC FC G A /
I see a line of cars and they're all painted black
With flowers and my love, both never to come back
I see people turn their heads and quickly look away
Like a newborn baby it just happens every day
I look inside my self and see my heart is black
I see my red door I must have it painted black
Maybe then I'll fade away and not have to face the fact
It's not easy facing up when your whole world is black
No more will my green sea go turn a deeper blue
I could not foresee this thing happening to you
If I look hard enough into the setting sun
My love will laugh with me before the morning comes
I see a red door and I want it painted black
No colors anymore I want them to turn black
I see the girls walk by dressed in their summer clothes
I have to turn my head until my darkness goes
Hm-hm-hm-hm-hm-hm-hm-hm-hm-hm-hm-hm-hm (4X)
I want to see it painted, paint it black
Black as night, black as coal
I want to see the sun blotted out from the sky
I want to see it painted, painted, painted, paint it black, yeah
Hm-hm-hm-hm-hm-hm-hm-hm-hm-hm-hm-hm-hm
{To fade}
