BLACK GIRL by The Four Pennies

-Standard tuning

Intro: 2x DmDm  A minorAm  FF G(Barre) FF E MajorE

A minorAm           D MajorD      FF
Black girl, black girl, tell me no lies,
A minorAm      E MajorE      A minorAm
where did you sleep last night
A minorAm
In the pines, in the pines,
D MajorD          FF
where the sun never shines
A minorAm         E MajorE      A minorAm
To shiver, the whole night through

A minorAm        D MajorD     FF
Her husband was a railroad man,
A minorAm      E MajorE     A minorAm
killed at the driving wheel
A minorAm           D MajorD     FF
She found his body all crushed & torn
A minorAm    E MajorE    A minorAm
under the twisted steel

A minorAm            D MajorD       FF
It caused her to weep, it caused her to moan
A minorAm        E MajorE    A minorAm
It caused her to lose her mind
A minorAm           D MajorD    FF
She thought of how she lost her man,
A minorAm      E MajorE    A minorAm
So brave, so gentle & kind

SOLO(A minorAm D MajorD FF A minorAm E MajorE A minorAm)

A minorAm          D MajorD      FF
Now she wonders alone beneath the trees,
A minorAm       E MajorE     A minorAm
she's happy to mourn her man
A minorAm             D MajorD     FF
And the cold wind blows to chill her bones
A minorAm      E MajorE       A minorAm
And sea mist hangs over her head

A minorAm           D MajorD       FF
Black girl, black girl, Where will you go?
A minorAm         E MajorE     A minorAm
She goes where the cold wind blows

A minorAm
In the pines, in the pines,
D MajorD          FF
where the sun never shines

A minorAm             A augmentedA     FF      A augmentedA
To shiver, the whole night through ..
