[Verse 1]
Cm The fortune queen of New Orleans C Fm G Was brushing her cat in her black limou-sine Cm On the back seat were scratches C Fm Eb G From the marks of men her fortune she had won Cm Couldn't see through the tinted glass C Fm G She said, "Home James" he hit the gas Cm I followed her to some darkened room C Fm Eb G She took my money, she said, "I'll be with you soon"
[Chorus]
Cm Dark lady laughed and danced G G7 And lit the candles one by one G Danced to her gypsy music Fm Cm G7 Till her brew was done Cm Dark lady played black magic G G7 Till the clock struck on the twelve G She told me more about me Fm Cm G7 Than I knew myself
[Verse 2]
Cm She dealt two cards, a queen and a three C And mumbled some words Fm G That were so strange to me Cm Then she turned up a two-eyed jack C Fm My eyes saw red but the card Eb G Still stayed black Cm She said the man you love is secretly true C Fm G To someone else who is very close to you Cm My advice is that you leave this place C Fm Eb G Never come back and forget you ever saw my face
[Chorus]
Cm Dark lady laughed and danced G G7 And lit the candles one by one G Danced to her gypsy music Fm Cm G7 Till her brew was done Cm Dark lady played black magic G G7 Till the clock struck on the twelve G She told me more about me Fm Cm G7 Than I knew myself

[Verse 3]
C#m So I ran home and crawled in my bed C# F#m G# I couldn't sleep because of all the things she said C#m Then I remembered her strange perfume C# F#m E G# And how I smelled it once in my own room C#m So I sneaked back and caught her with my man C# F#m G# Laughing and kissing till they saw the gun in my hand C#m The next thing I knew they were dead on the floor C# F#m E G# Dark lady would never turn a card up anymore
