[Verse 1]
   Em                        B7
     I see a red door and I want it painted black
   Em                       B7
     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      A7              B7
     I have to turn my head until my darkness goes


[Verse 2]
   Em                         B7
     I see a line of cars and they're all painted black
   Em                              B7
     With flowers and my love both never to come back
   Em   D         G          D         Em
     I see people turn their heads and quickly look away
   Em       D        G     D       A7             B7
     Like a new born baby, it just happens every day


[Verse 3]
   Em                         B7
     I look inside myself and see my heart is black
   Em                          B7
     I see my red door, I must have it painted black
   Em      D         G      D      Em
     Maybe then I'll fade away and not have to face the facts
   Em         D     G     D       A7                  B7
     It's not easy facing up when your whole world is black


[Verse 4]
   Em                             B7
     No more will my green sea go turn a deeper blue
   Em                               B7
     I could not foresee this thing happening to you
   Em   D      G     D       Em
     If I look hard enough into the setting sun
   Em    D        G          D     A7              B7
     My love will laugh with me before the morning comes


[Verse 5]
   Em                        B7
     I see a red door and I want it painted black
   Em                       B7
     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      A7              B7
     I have to turn my head until my darkness goes
