Tabbed by: http://www.andreasvockrodt.de
[Intro]
Em
[Verse]
Em B
I see a red door and I want it painted black.
Em B
No colours anymore I want them to turn black.
Em D G A B
I see the girls walk by dressed in their summer clothes
Em D G A B Em
I have to turn my head until my darkness goes.
[Verse 2]
Em B
I see a line of cars and they're all painted black
Em B
With flowers and my love both never to come back
Em D G A B
I see people turn their heads and quickly look away
Em D G A B
Like a newborn baby it just happens every day
[Verse 3]
Em B
I look inside myself and see my heart is black
Em B
I see my red door I want it painted black
Em D G A B
Maybe then I'll fade away and not have to face the facts
Em D G A B
It's not easy facing up when your whole world is black
[Verse 4]
Em B
No more will my green sea go turn a deeper blue
Em B
I could not forsee this thing happening to you
Em D G A B
If I look hard enough into the setting sun
Em D G A B
My love will laugh with me before the morning comes
[Solo]
