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