Am F G Am Black is the
colour
of my true love's hair.
F C E E7 Her lips
are like some roses fair
F C E E7 She had
the sweetest smile and the gentlest hands
F G Am And I love the ground
whereon she stands.
Am F G Am I love my love
and
well she knows
F C E E7 I love
the ground whereon she goes
F C E E7 I wish
the day it soon would come
F G Am When she and I could
be as one
Am F G Am I go to the
Clyde
and I mourn and weep
F C E E7 For
satisfied
I ne'er can be
F C E E7 I write
her a letter just a few short lines
F G Am And suffer death a
thousand times
Am F G Am Black is the
colour
of my true love's hair.
F C E E7 Her lips
are like some roses fair
F C E E7 She had
the sweetest smile and the gentlest hands
F G Am And I love the ground
whereon she stands.
