Paint It Black
The Rolling Stones
 FmC7
                           I see a red door and I want it painted black
 FmC7
                         No colors any more I want them to turn black
 FmEbAbFm
                                    I see the girls walk by dressed in their summer clothes
 FmEbAbEbBbC7
                                     I  have to turn my head until the darkness goes
 FmC7
                             I see a line of cars and they're all painted black
 FmC7
                                  With flowers and my love both never to come back
 FmEbAbFm
                                     I   see people turn their heads and quickly look away
 FmEbAbE6BbC7
                                     Like a new born baby it just happens every day
 FmC7
                             I look inside myself and see my heart is black
 FmC7
                            I see my red door and I want it painted black
 FmEbAbFm
                                     Maybe then I'll fade away and not have to face the fact
 FmEbAbEbBbC7
                                     It's not easy facing up when your whole world is black
 FmC7
                                 No more will my green sea go turn a deeper blue
 FmC7
                                  I could not forsee this thing happening to you
 FmEbAbEbFm
                            If   I look hard enough into the setting sun
 FmEbAbEbBbC7
                                        My love will laugh with me before the morning comes
 FmC7
                           I see a red door and I want it painted black
 FmC7
                         No colors any more I want them to turn black
 FmEbAbFm
                                    I see the girls walk by dressed in their summer clothes
 FmEbAbEbBbC7
                                     I  have to turn my head until the darkness goes
 C7FmC7
                                         I want to see your face, painted black, black as night
 FmC7
                                  Don't wanna see the sun flying high in the sky
 FmC7Fm
                                     I wanna see it painted, painted, painted, painted black Yeah

Here it is:
 DmA7
                                         I see my red door and I want it painted black
 DmA7
                                No colors anymore, I want them to turn black
 DmCFCDm
    I see the girls go by, dressed in their summer clothes
 DmCFCGA
                                        I have to turn my head until my darkness goes
And the rest is the same as that.
If you play along with the recording, you'll notice that this is actually
in the wrong key. The way the Stones did it used these chords for the
fingering, but was capoed up three frets and tuned down a bit, so instead
of being in D minor it was somewhere between E minor and F minor. Also, I
may have made some slight mistakes with the lyrics, since I'm doing this
from memory.
