 [verse 1]
 If you've got pictures of your face
 Could you leave it on your way out the door
 I don't care if it's color or black or white
 I just need something to remember you by
 
 [chorus]
 G             D             C              C
                            Before my life, before my life went dim

        No one told me the trouble I was in

       Before my life went dim
 
 [intro riff 2x]
 
 [verse 2]
 I painted half my face green
 I painted half my face blue
 In hopes of showing you both sides of me both sides of me
 I guess it came down to don't you love don't you love me
 
 
 [chorus]
 Before my life went dim
 Before my life went dim
 No one told me the trouble I was in
 Before my life went dim
