Misc Originals – David House - Black Roses (Guitar)

E7                                Am
It seems that you and I we know a secret

E7                             Am
But you alone my dear you must confess

F                               E
In the dead of night I held you closely

            Am
You took my breath

E7                             Am
Only you for sure can know the reason

E7                             Am
I am sure my love it's quite a tale

F                                E
How you left me broken, cold and lonely

        Am
Here in Hell

Dm                   Am
Now I lay me down in satin soft as clouds

       Dm                           Am
With a tiny pillow there to rest my head

             E                     Am    G  Am
And then you give me a dozen black roses

    E7                                Am
You stole my heart and carelessly you broke it

E7                         Am
You my love, a murderer, a thief

F                               E
Even as the cold wind chills my bones

             Am
There's no release

Dm                   Am
Now I lay me down in satin soft as clouds

       Dm                           Am
With a tiny pillow there to rest my head

             E                     Am    G   Am
And then you give me a dozen black roses

  G                            Am
I would have done anything for you

G                               Am
And you know my love was always true

G                             Am
Still you had to cut and run away love

             E
Now night is black

         Am
And I am blue

Dm                   Am
Now I lay me down in satin soft as clouds

       Dm                           Am
With a tiny pillow there to rest my head

             E                     Am
And then you give me a dozen black roses

          E                     Am
Still you give me a dozen black roses
