[Verse 1]

G               D               C
If you've got a picture of your face
G                  D           C
Could you leave it on your way out the door?
G                    D                 C
I don't care if it's color or black or white
G           F              C
I just need something to remember you by

[Chorus]

G     D     C                 C
  Ah, Oh, before my life went dim
                            (before my life went dim)
G     D     C                 C
  Ah, Oh, before my life went dim
                            (before my life went dim)
Em       D           C             C
  No one told me the trouble I was in

G   D                 C   
  Before my life went dim

[Verse 2]

G         D               C
I painted half my face up green
G                D               C
Don't you know I painted half my face blue
G           D           C                C
In hopes of showing you both sides of me both sides of me
G          D            C              C
I guess it came down to don't you love don't you love me

[Chorus]

G     D     C                 C
  Ah, Oh, before my life went dim
                            (before my life went dim)
G     D     C                 C
  Ah, Oh, before my life went dim
                            (before my life went dim)
Em       D           C             C
  No one told me the trouble I was in

G   D                 C
  Before my life went dim
