Black Tears Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[D]Fragile little thi[Dm]ng go[D]
[C]lightly on the wing
[G]Don't be put off your game
If [D]troubled wind should blow
you off your way
Natural love and trust
Have [C]downed their tools and struck
The [G]nation's heart it rusts
is no surprise
And seems [D]so appropriate today

[Verse 2]
[Em]
Black [F]tears on a red [C]rock[D]
Fall right [Em]through and they [D]dry [G]up[C]
How could it fail to grab your [G]atten[D]tion[Em]
[D]Black tea[F]rs on [C]a red rock[G]

[Verse 3]
[Eb]
[F]These trees bear a strange [G]fruit
Harvesting [Eb]lies and poisoned
[F]blossoms of [G]the truth[C]
There's blood on all our hands
and blood on [G]our boot[D]s[Em]
[D]And black tea[F]rs on [C]a red rock[G]

[Verse 4]
[G]
An [D]island watch house bed
A [C]black man's lying [G]dead[D]
An island watch house bed
A [C]black man's lying dead

[Outro 1]
[G]
