Em  Am  G  B7
It was cold
she was colder she wore a black silk ribbon in a bow around her throat for her lover she walked the halls her young heart singing
Em  G  D
Ooo-oo-ooo-oo-oo

Em  Am  G  B7
He left a note
on the pillow in the lamplight words were dancing something smooth on her fingers black silk ribbon like a cold comfort
Em  G  D 
Ooo-oo-ooo-oo-oo

     Em        Am            G       B7
I'm leaving he said and I'll find my own way home

Em  Am  G  B7
And the hounds
in the courtyard they were waiting for their master when a cry from the window don't you love me?
Em  G  D
Ooo-oo-ooo-oo-oo

Em  Am  G  B7
But for him
it was simple it wasn't till he noticed there was something in her eyes in the mirror the ribbon came as a surprise, he cried
Em  G  D
Ooo-oo-ooo-oo-oo
