Lyrics

I see a red door and I (C7)want it painted black.

(Fm)No colors anymore, I (C7)want them to turn black.

(Eb)I be see the ple (Ab)girls walk by dressed (Fm)in their to summer clothes.

(Eb)It's I a have to (Ab)turn my (Eb)head (Bb)until my darkness goes.

(Fm)I see a line of cars and (C7)they're all painted black,

(Fm)with flowers and my love, both (C7)never to come back.

(Eb)May be see peo ple (Ab)turn their heads and (Fm)quickly to look away;

(Eb)It's I a newborn (Ab)baby, (Eb)it just (Bb)happens ev'ry day.

(Fm)No more will my green sea go (C7)turn a deeper blue.

(Fm)I could not foresee this thing (C7)happening to you.

(Fm)If (Eb)I look (Ab)hard (Eb)enough (Fm)into the setting sun,

my (Eb)love will (Ab)laugh with (Eb)me (Bb)before the morning (C7)comes.

I wanna see your (Fm)face

painted black, (C7)black as night,

black as coal.

Don't (Fm)wanna see the sun

flyin' (C7)high in the sky.

I wanna see it (Fm)painted,

painted, painted, painted (C7)black,

(Fm)yeah!
