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: Em B I see a line of cars and they're all painted black. Em B With flowers and by 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 A B Like a new born baby it just happens every day. Verse: Em B I look inside myself and see my heart is black. Em B I see my red door and I want it painted black. Em D G D Em Maybe then I'll fade a-way and not have to face the facts. Em D G D A B It's not easy facing up when your whole world is black. Verse: 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 D Em If I look hard e-nough in-to the setting sun Em D G D A B My love will laugh with me be-fore the morning comes. Outro: Em B Bm Bm Bm Bm Bm Bm Bm Bm Bm Bm Bm hmmm...

I think this is the beginning tab
Im not sure tho
I think the chords are totally right, you can replace the B for B7 and sounds better, but B also works.
I’ve played my tabs for the intro in another four string instrument, and i did it with another tune.

I prefer an A7 chord over an A as it sounds a bit darker…
I totally agree the A does not work, did you ever find a better chord?
I can’t believe how awesome this sounds on ukulele!! At least the strumming pattern I put on it. I play this a lot whenever my brother plays Mafia III (I knew the song before the game though)
A doesn’t feel right for this song…. do any of you guys or gals have a suggestion of what it might be?
when I play this song I think playing a B7 after the B in the verse sounds better. but that’s just my opinion 🙂
I like it better with B7 instead of the B
Really good!
I think it sounds better if you use B in place of Em
Em D G D B
I see the girls walk by dressed in their summer clothes.
Did anyone come from Wednesday?

Em for “in their summer,” and B or B7 for “clothes.”
