             Em                                                                                 B7  
     I see a red door and I want it painted black
Em                                                                            B7  
     No colors anymore I want them to turn black

Em      D                    G                 D                      A                                                      B7  
     I have to turn my head until my darkness goes
Em                                                                    B7  
     I see a line of cars and they're all painted black
Em                                                                                         B7  
     With flowers and my love, both never to come back
Em    D                         G                              D                            Em  
     I see people turn their heads and quickly look away
Em      D                    G            D            A                                              B7  
  Like a newborn baby it just ha    ppens ev'ryday
Em                                                                                                                                                 B7

Em    D                 G                      D                                                                                    Em  
     Maybe then I'll fade away and not have to face the facts
Em      D                    G            D                                                                         A                                 B7  
     It's not easy facing    up when your whole world is black
Em                                                                                                                                                              B7  
     No more will my green sea go turn a deeper blue
Em                                                                                                                                              B7  
     I could not forsee this thing happening to you
Em    D                 G                      D                            Em  
     If I look hard enough into the setting sun
Em      D                    G            D                                      A                                                            B7  
     My love will laugh with me before the morning comes
