Verse: A Oh black bird won't you sing my song, Blackbird sing a song for me. My soul can sway, my body hangs, underneath her sycamore tree. A Oh her ghost won't let me be she keeps a calling out my name A I'm going send the evil woman straight to hell when I set this house up in flames D When I set this house up in flames Chorus: A Old black bird won't you sing my song while they take my soul away I hear the devil calling out howling, St. Peter just sealed my fate D
I once had a lover but I caught her with another now she don't come G around no more A G D Oh Black bird won't you sing my song while I wait on the killing A floor. River?s gonna rise even under moon light, Shake em up you can't hide from me. I'm gonna make you live a life on the run for taking away Emily. A Go on dig her six feet down and add my bones with the rest. A As God as mine when this list?s fever pitch god could raise the dead. D Lord he could raise the dead. Chorus: Old black bird won't you sing my song while they take my soul away I hear the devil calling out howling, St. Peter just sealed my fate D I once had a lover but I caught her with another now she don't come around no more A G D Oh Black bird won't you sing my song while I wait on the killing A floor. Oh send her to hell Gonna take me swimming in my heavy boots so I can breathe her pretty dark blue Just let me sink in my Mississippi so I can forget about you. Chorus: Old black bird won't you sing my song while they take my soul away I hear the devil calling out howling, St. Peter just sealed my fate D I once had a lover but I caught her with another now she don't come around no more A G D Oh Black bird won't you sing my song while I wait on the killing A floor. G D A While I wait, While I wait, on the killing floor.
