Paint It Black (The Rolling Stones)

Verse 1 and 5
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          D          Em
  I see the girls walk by dressed in their summer clothes.
Em  D       G       D       A               B
  I have to turn my head un-til my darkness goes.

Verse 2
  I see a line of cars and they're all painted black.
  With flowers and by love both never to come back.
  I see people turn their heads and quickly look away.
  Like a new born baby it just happens every day.

Verse 3
  I look inside myself and see my heart is black.
  I see my red door and I want it painted black.
  Maybe then I'll fade a-way and not have to face the facts.
  It's not easy facing up when your whole world is black.

Verse 4
  No more will my green sea go turn a deeper blue.
  I could not forsee this thing happening to you.
  If I look hard e-nough in-to the setting sun
  My love will laugh with me be-fore the morning comes.
