[verse 1]

If you've got pictures of your face

Could you leave it on your way out the door

I don't care if it's color or black or white

I just need something to remember you by

[chorus]

G D C C

Before my life, before my life went dim

G D C C

Before my life, before my life went dim

Em D C C

No one told me the trouble I was in

G D C C

Before my life went dim

[intro riff 2x]

[verse 2]

I painted half my face green

I painted half my face blue

In hopes of showing you both sides of me both sides of me

I guess it came down to don't you love don't you love me

[chorus]

Before my life went dim

Before my life went dim

No one told me the trouble I was in

Before my life went dim
