(Capo the 3rd fret)
(G)I said grampa what's this pitcture here, it's all (F) black & white an it ain't real clear
is (C)that you there, he said yeah, I was ele(G)ven
(G)time's were tough back in '35, that's (F)me an uncle joe just tryin'd survive on a cot(C)ton farm, in a great
dep(G)ression.
(G)and if it looks like we were scared to death,
like a cou(F)ple of kids just tryin to save each ot(C)her,
you should have seen it in co(G)lor
(G)and this one here was taken over sea's in the mid(F)dle of hell in 1943,
in the win(C)ter time, you can almost see my (G)breath
that was my tailgunner ole Johnny McGee, he was a high(F) school teacher from new orleans
and he had (C)my back right throught the day we (G)left
(G)and if it looks like we were scared to death,
like a cou(F)ple of kids just tryin to save each ot(C)her,
you should have seen it in co(G)lor
a picture's worth a thousand words
but you (F) can't see what those shades of grey keep co(C)vered,
you should have seen it in co(G)lor
(G)and this one is my favorite here
this is me(F) and grandma in the summer sun
(C)all dressed up
on the day we said our (G)vows
you can tell it here but it was hot that june
and her ro(F)se was red and her eyes were blue
and just lo(C)ok at that smile
I was so (G)proud
(em)that's the (D)story of my (C)life, (em)right th(D)ere in black and whi(C)te(D):
(G)and if it looks like we were scared to death,
like a cou(F)ple of kids just tryin to save each ot(C)her,
you should have seen it in co(G)lor
a picture's worth a thousand words
but you (F) can't see what those shades of grey keep co(C)vered,
you should have seen it in co(G)lor
