[Bb] _ _ _ _ [Ab] _ _ _ [Eb] _
_ _ _ _ [Bb] _ _ I said, Grandpa, what's this picture here?
[Ab] It's all black and white, and it ain't [Eb] real clear.
Is that you there?
He said, yeah, [Bb] I was 11.
_ [Cm]
[Bb] And times were tough back in 35.
[Ab] That's me and Uncle Joe [Eb] just trying
to survive a cotton farm in the [Bb] Great Depression. _ _
If it looks like we were scared to death,
[Ab] like a couple of kids just [Eb] trying to save each other,
you should have [Ab] seen it [Bb] in color. _ _
_ _ _ Oh, and this one here was taken overseas
[Ab] in the middle of [Eb] hell in 1943 in the wintertime.
You can almost [Bb] see my eyebrows.
_ That was my tail gunner, old Johnny McGee.
[Ab] He was a high school teacher from [Eb] New Orleans,
and he had my back right through the [Bb] day we left.
_ If it looks like we were scared to [Ab] death,
like a couple of kids just trying to [Eb] save each other,
you should have seen it [Bb] in color.
_ A picture's worth a thousand [Ab] words,
but you can't see what those shades of [Eb] gray keep covered.
You should have seen it [Bb] in color.
_ _ [Ab] _ _ _ _
[Eb] _ _ _ _ [Bb] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ This one is my favorite [Ab] one.
This is me and Grandma in [Eb] the summer sun,
all dressed up the day we [Bb] set our vows.
_ [Cm] [Bb] You can't tell in here, but it was hot that June.
[Ab] That rose was [Cm] red and her eyes were [Eb] blue,
and just look at that smile.
I [Bb] was so proud.
_ _ [Gm] _ [F] That's the story [Eb] of my life,
_ [Gm] _ _ [F] right there in [Eb] black and white.
[F] _ [Bb] If it looks like we were scared to [Ab] death,
like a couple of kids just trying to [Eb] save each other,
you should have seen it [Bb] in color.
_ A picture's worth a thousand [Ab] words,
but you [Eb] can't see what those shades of gray keep covered.
You should have seen it in [Bb] color.
_ _ [Ab] _ _ _ _ [Eb] _
You should have seen [Bb] it in color. _ _ _
_ _ _ [Ab] _ _ _ _ [Eb] _
_ _ _ [Cm] _ _ [Bb] _ _ _
