[E] We [Ebm] played Painted [G] Black.
Don't know if we did the song justice, but it was really [Em] fun.
We had a great time, and that's all that matters.
I see a red door and I [B] want to be painted black
[Em]
No colors anymore, I [B] want them to turn black
[Em] I [D] see [G] the girls walk by [Em] dressed in their summer clothes
[D] I have [G] to turn my head [E] until the [B] darkness goes
[Em]
I see a line of [B] cars and they're all painted red
[Em]
With flowers and my love [B] for the mother to compare
I [Em]
[D] see [G] people [D] turn their heads [Em] and quickly look away
[D] Like a new [G] wound, [D] it [E] just happens [B] every day
[Em]
I look inside myself [B] and see my heart is bled
[Em]
I see my red door and [B] I must have it painted black
[Em]
[D] Maybe then [G] I'll fade [D] away [Em] and not have to face the facts
[D] Not [G] easy [D] facing up when [E] your whole [B] world's black
[Em]
No more will my green sea go turn a deeper [B] blue
[Em] I could not hold this thing [B]
happening to [Em] me
[D] If I look [G] [D] out enough [Em] into the setting sun
My [Bm] love [G] will [D] I be waiting [Em] for them [B] on the dance
[Em] I see a red door and [E] I want to be painted [B] black
[Em]
No colors anymore, [B] I want them to turn black
[Em]
[D] I see [G] the [D] girls walk by dressed [Em] in their summer clothes
I [D] have [G] to [D] turn my head [E] until my [B] darkness goes
