She Always Takes it Black
Capo 3
Standard Tuning
Note: I believe he is hammering the D string on C/G and the G string on Fmaj7.
Though simply strumming this in a pattern you're comfortable with is just fine.
[Intro]
C/G Fmaj7 Am (x2)
[Lead into the first verse on C/G]
Fmaj7 C/G G7
Dreaming up this golden grain, I'm falling from this shack
Fmaj7 C/G G7
Talking sweet to the queen, wish I was riding with the jacks
Am Em C Fmaj7
Walking proud and lonesome now, oh I'm yearning for the pack
Am C C/G
But I'd never say I love you dear, just to hear you say it back
[Intro](x1)
Fmaj7 C/G G7
I've heard the road to every truth, is just a cul-de-sac
Fmaj7 C/G G7
There's ladies the lions there, but you know its just an act
Am Em C Fmaj7
You search the world for the milk of the pearl, she always takes in black
Am C C/G
But you'll love her till it all goes dark, you'll love her even after that
[Intro](x2)
C/G Fmaj7 Am (x2)
[End on]
