In Color Jamey Johnson
This is my very first tab. Please let me know if there are any mistakes.
I am sick and tired of people writing tabs that have the "F" chord in them
for this song. THIS TAB IS THE CLOSEST TO BEING CORRECT ON THE
INTERNET!! I even wrote up the intro. It's not 100% correct but it's
damn close for being transposed from multiple guitars.

*Verse*
[G]I said Grandpa what's this picture here
It's all [Cadd9]black and white and it ain't real clear
Is [C]that you there He said yeah, I was [G]11
And [G]times were tough back in '35
That's [Cadd9]me and Uncle Joe just tryin' to survive
A c[C]otton farm in the Great Depre[G]ssion
*Chorus*
If it [G]looks like we were scared to death
Like a [C]couple of kids just tryin' to save each o[C/G]ther
You should've seen it in colo[G]r
*Verse*
Ooh and [G]this one was taken overseas
In the [Cadd9]middle of hell in 1933 in the [C]winter time
You can almost see my bre[G]ath
That was my tailgunner ol' Johnny Mcgee
He was a [Cadd9]high school teacher from New Orleans and he [C]had my back
Right through the day we lef[G]t
*Chorus*
If it [G]looks like we were scared to death
Like a [C]couple of kids just tryin' to save each o[C/G]ther
You should've seen it in colo[G]r
A picture's worth a thousand words
But you [C]can't see what those shades of gray keep cov[C/G]ered
You should've seen it in colo[G]r[C] [C/G] [G]
*Verse*
[G]This one is my favorite one
This is [Cadd9]me and Grandma in the summer sun
[C]All dressed up the day we said our vow[G]s
You can't tell it here but it was hot that June
That [Cadd9]rose was red and her eyes were blue
Just [C]look at that smile, I was so prou[G]d[Em]
*Bridge*
[Em]That's the story of my [Cadd9(2)]life[Em]
[Em]Right there in black and [Cadd9]white
*Chorus*
[G]And if it looks like we were scared to death
Like a [C]couple of kids just tryin' to save each o[C/G]ther
You should've seen it in col[G]or
A [G]picture's worth a thousand words
C--------------pause in strumming----------- C/G
But you can't see what those shades of gray keep covered
You should've seen it in col[G]or
(Guitar solo)
Yeah a [G]picture's a worth a thousand words
But you [C]can't see what those shades of gray keep cove[C/G]red
You should've seen it in col[G]or
(Strum out to the chorus chord progression and strum a G chord to end)
