Verse 1

Em Em B B
I see a red door and I want it painted black

Em Em B B
No colours anymore I want them to turn black

Em Em D D G G D D Em Em
I see the girls walk by dressed in their summer clothes

Em Em D D G G D D A A B B
I have to turn my head un-til my darkness goes



Verse 2

Em Em B B
I see a line of cars and they're all painted black

Em Em B B
With flowers and by love both never to come back

Em Em D D G G D D Em Em
I see people turn their heads and quickly look away

Em Em D D G G D D A A B B
Like a new born baby it just happens every day



Verse 3

I look inside myself and see my heart is black

Em Em B B
I see my red door and I want it painted black

Em Em D D G G D D Em Em
Maybe then I'll fade a-way and not have to face the facts

Em Em D D G G D D A A B B
It's not easy facing up when your whole world is black


Verse 4

Em Em B B
No more will my green sea go turn a deeper blue

Em Em B B
I could not forsee this thing happening to you

Em Em D D G G D D Em Em
If I look hard e-nough in-to the setting sun

Em Em D D G G D D A A B B
My love will laugh with me be-fore the morning comes
