Paint it Black free Harmonica Tabs & Lesson

Updated: Jan 10

Hello! In today's harmonica lesson we're learning to play Paint It Black by the Rolling Stones - an easy harmonica lesson on A diatonic blues harp.



Here are the harp tabs:


-2 -3// -3/ 4 -3/ -3// -2 -2 -2/ -2 -3// -2 -2/ (2 -2/)

I see a red door and I want it painted bla-ack


-2 -3// -3/ 4 -3/ -3// -2 -2 -2/ -2 -3// -2 -2/ (2 -2/)

No colours anymore, I want them to turn bla-ack


6 -5 -5 -3/ -3/ 4 4 -4 -4 -4 4 -3/ -4

I see the girls walk by dressed in their su-umm-er clothes


6 -5 -5 -3/ -3/ 4 4 -4 -4 -4 4 -3/ -4

I have to turn my head until my da-ark-ness goes


Repeat tab:

I see a line of cars and they're all painted black

With flowers and my love, both never to come back

I see people turn their heads and quickly look away

Like a newborn baby, it just happens everyday
