         DmDm          A augmentedA
1. (riff 1)  I see a red door and I want it painted black,
        DmDm          A augmentedA
  (riff 1)  no colors any more I want them to turn black.
   DmDm  C majorC    FF       DmDm
  I see the girls walk by dressed in their summer clothes,
   DmDm C majorC    FF   C majorC   G+G       A augmentedA
  I have to turn my head until the darkness goes.
        DmDm           A augmentedA
2. (riff 1) I see a line of cars and they're all painted black,
       DmDm              A augmentedA
  (riff 1) with flowers and my love both never to come back.
  DmDm  C majorC    FF          DmDm
  I see people turn their heads and quickly look away.
  DmDm   C majorC    FF  C majorC    G+G       A augmentedA
  like a new born baby it just happens every day.
      DmDm            A augmentedA
3. (riff 1) I look inside myself and see my heart is black,
      DmDm            A augmentedA
  (riff 1) I see my red door and I want it painted black.
  DmDm   C majorC    FF       DmDm
  Maybe then I'll fade away and not have to face the fact,
  DmDm    C majorC  FF   C majorC   G+G           A augmentedA
  it's not easy facing up when your whole world is black.
      DmDm              A augmentedA
4. (riff 1) No more will my green sea go turn a deeper blue,
      DmDm               A augmentedA
  (riff 1) I could not forsee this thing happening to you.
  DmDm  C majorC   FF  C majorC   DmDm
  If  I look hard enough into the setting sun
  DmDm C majorC    FF     C majorC  G+G         A augmentedA
  my love will laugh with me before the morning comes.
                 DmDm             A augmentedA
5. (riff 1) I want to see your face, painted black, black as night
             DmDm          A augmentedA
  Don't wanna see the sun flying high in the sky
          DmDm                 A augmentedA
