Em                   B
 I see a red door, I say paint it black

Em                      B
 No color in my life so just turn it black

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

Em   D     G       D    A7                B
 I'm gonna turn my head 'til the darkness goes
[Verse 2]
Em                       B
 I see this line of cars, they're all painted black

Em                             B
 Dead flowers and my love both never to come back

Em   D      G         D      Em
 You people turn your heads, quick now, look away

Em      D       G       D         A7           B
 Like a newborn baby is that just happens everyday
[Verse 3]
Em                        B
 I look inside myself and see my heart is black

Em                    B
 I see my red door, I must have it painted black

Em     D     G    D        Em
 Maybe then, I'll fade away and not face the facts

Em        D    G      D            A7             B
 It's not easy facing up when your whole world is black
[Verse 4]
Em                              B
 No more will my deep sea shades a deeper blue

Em                                    B
 Maybe now this dark thing will start happening to you

Em    D    G     D     Em
 If I look hard enough into the setting sun

Em  D       G        D       A7               B
 My love be laughin' at me before the morning comes
[Interlude] | Em | Em | B | B | [Outro]
               Em
I wanna see it painted, painted black

B
Black as night, black as coal

        Em                  B
I wanna see the sun blotted out from the sky

               Em
I wanna see it painted, painted

                 B          Em
Painted, painted black, yeah
