Black Heart - Calexico
Tabbed by Seb dit The Koala
Verse (Cm G# Cm G# / Cm G# Cm G#)
Cm G#
Spring is frozen now I'm stuck in low
Wrapped with wire, tapped to the heart
Can't find no poison, now I've got no cure
(the) fangs are stuck inside my skin
Chorus (Bb F Cm / Bb F Cm / Bb F Cm D# Gm / Bb F Cm D# Gm / F Cm)

Bb F Cm D# Gm
One man's righteousness is another man's Long haul,
Bb F Cm D# Gm
Sentence carried out Long haul,
F Cm
Counting the miles To the four corners of the world
Verse (Cm G# Cm G# / Cm G# Cm G#)
Spring is rusted shut, (faith's) coiled and cracked Apparitions worth their weight in gold
Scratched in metal, name erodes away Hands are scarred, heart is charred burnt though, and ashen
Chorus (Bb F Cm / Bb F Cm / Bb F Cm D# Gm / Bb F Cm D# Gm / F Cm)
Bb F Cm Bb F Cm
Trip on fence post line Sifting through the remains
Bb F Cm D# Gm
One man's close pursuit is another man's last chance,
Bb F Cm D# Gm
Make it through the divide Last chance,
F D# Gm
Suffer the weight or get buried by this black heart,
D# Gm D# Gm
Sweeping over the land Black heart,
F Cm
Crawling its way to the four corners of the world
