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 G Em
I see the girls walk by dressed in their summer clothes,
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 A G Em
I see people turn their heads and quickly look away.
Em D G D A B7
Like a newborn baby, it just happens every day.


Em B7
I look inside myself and see my heart is black.
Em B7
I see my red door and must have it painted black.
Em D G D A G Em
Maybe then I'll fade away and not have to face the facts,
Em D G D A B7
It's not easy facin' 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 foresee this thing happening to you.
Em D G D A G Em
If I look hard enough into the settin' sun,
Em D G D A B7
My love will laugh with me before the mornin' comes.

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 G Em
I see the girls go by dressed in their summer clothes,
Em D G D A B7
I have to turn my head until my darkness goes.

Em B7
Hmm...

Em B7
I wanna see your face painted black.
Em B7
Black as night, black as coal.
Em B7
I wanna see the sun blotted out from the sky.
Em B7
I wanna see it painted, painted, painted, painted black, yeah!

Em B7
Hmm...
