[Intro 1]
[G][F][C][G]

[Verse 1]
I said, [G]"Grandpa, what's this picture here?
It's all [F]black and white, and it ain't real clear
Is [C]that you there?"
He said, “Yeah, I was e[G]leven
And [G]times were tough back in thirty-five
That's [F]me and Uncle Joe just tryna survive
A cot[C]ton farm, in a Great De[G]pression

[Chorus 1]
If it [G]looks like we were scared to death
Like a [F]couple of kids
just tryna save each [C]other
You should’ve seen it in [G]col[G]or

[Verse 2]
Oh, and [G]this one here’s taken overseas
In the [F]middle of hell in nineteen forty-three
In the [C]wintertime,
you can almost see [G]my breath
That was [G]my tail gunner ol' Johnny McGee
He was a [F]high school teacher
from New Orleans
And he [C]had my back
right through the day [G]we left

[Chorus 2]
If it [G]looks like we were scared to death
Like a [F]couple of kids
just tryna save each [C]other
You should’ve seen it in [G]color
A [G]picture's worth a thousand words
But you [F]can't see
what those shades of gray keep [C]covered

[Interlude 1]
You should've seen it in col-
[G](-o[F]r)[C][G][G]

[Verse 3]
'N' [G]this one is my favorite one
This is [F]me and Grandma in the summer sun
[C]All dressed up the day we said [G]our vows
You can't [G]tell it here but it was hot that June
And that [F]rose was red and her eyes were blue
And just [C]look at that smile, I was [G]so proud

[Bridge 1]
[Em]That's the story[D] of my l[C]ife
[Em]Right ther[D]e in black and white[C][D]

[Chorus 3]
And if it [G]looks like we were scared to death
Like a [F]couple of kids
just tryna save each [C]other
You should’ve seen it in [G]color
Yeah, a [G]picture's worth a thousand words
But you [F]can't see
what those shades of gray keep [C]covered

[Outro 1]
You should've seen it in col-
[G](-o[F]r")[C]
(You should've seen it in [G]col- or)
Yeah, a [G]picture's worth a thousand words
But you [F]can't see
what those shades of gray keep [C]covered
You should've seen it in [G]col- -or
[F][C][G]
