NOTE: Play these open chords with the Capo on the third fret:
IG said, Grandpa what's this picture here
IFt's all black and white and ain't real clear
ICs thaGt you there, he said, yeah I was eleven
Times were tough baGck in thirty-five
TFhat's me and Uncle Joe just tryin' to survive
A cotCton farm iGn the Great Depression
AndG if it looks like we were scared to death
LFike a Ccouple of kids just trying to save each other
You Gshould have seen it in color
GThis one here was taken overseas
IFn the middle of hell in nineteen forty-three
ICn the winter time you can almost see my breath
That Gwas my tail gunner ole' Johnny McGee
He waFs a high school teacher from New Orleans
AnCd he had my baGck right through the day we left
And Gif it looks like we were scared to death
LFike a Ccouple of kids just trying to save each other
You Gshould have seen it in color
A piGcture's worth a thousand words
ButF you can't sCee what those shades of gray keep covered
You shouldG have seen it in color
GThis one is my favorite one
TFhis is me and grandma in the summer sun
ACll dressGed up the day we said our vows
YGou can't tell it here but it was hot that June
That roseF was red and her eyes were blue
And Cjust Glook at that smile I was so proud
EmThat's thDe sCtory of my life
EmRigDht therCe Din black and white
And Gif it looks like we were scared to death
LFike a Ccouple of kids just trying to save each other
You Gshould have seen it in color
A piGcture's worth a thousand words
ButF you can't seeC what those shades of gray keep covered
You shouldG have seen it in color
You Gshould have seen it in color
