Black Is The Colour Chords

Standard (EADGBE)

Dm Black is the A♯colour C of my true love's hDmair

  Her lips are A♯like C some roses fDmair A

  The sweetest A♯smile C and the gentlest hDmands

  I love the gA♯round C whereon she sDmtands

  I love my A♯love C and well she kDmnows

  I love the A♯ground C whereon she gDmoes A

  I hope the dA♯ay C will one day Dmcome

  When she andA♯ I C will be as Dmone

  I go to the A♯Clyde C for to mourn and wDmeep

  For satisA♯fied C I never can Dmbe A

  I write her A♯letters,C just a few short lDmines

  And suffer A♯death C a thousand tDmimes

I prefer to play this song in Am - here's the transposition:

  Dm --> Am

  A♯ --> F

  C --> G

  A --> E
