[Intro 1]
[A5][F][Am]
[G][Am][A5]
[A][A5][Am][F][A]
[Am][G][Am]

[Verse 1]
Once I got [A5]caught in an avalanche,
I must have [Am]died,
[G]When a Bla[F]ck Swan flew to
the rescue [A5]and cried
[Am]An offer[F] I could not refuse,
[Em]now I'm work[G]ing on the other[A5] side.[Am]

[Verse 2]
Well, I [Am]flew with the [A5]bird then,
we flew all night
[Am]I got to see my pr[F]ison from[Am]
[A5]a thousand feet [Cm]high
[F]Buy me a drink, and I [G]tell you

[Verse 3]
'Bout the Black Swan
[Am]Must keep those black wings fo[F]lded, until [Dm]the time is right[Am],
to find the one whom I [F]can steal
A soul [Dm]from, to buy more [Am]time
Must keep my secret[F]s untold,
un[Dm]til the wrongs are r[Am]ight, the only one I could dec[F]eive,
I buy my time,
[Dm]need you to fly on the B[Am]lack Swan[A]

[Verse 4]
[A]
The [Eb]date is set, we [Gm]all must f[Cm]ace it
Door [Eb]to door, seekin[Gm]g sa[Bb]lvati[Cm]on[Eb]
I must, for [Gm]die I [Cm]wish not
My [Ab]hopes stay [Eb]afloat when
you [Db]give in [Bbm]to the

[Verse 5]
[Db]Silver lining, [F]sharp and [Bbm]so cold
[Db]Anger fades in[Cm]to a[Ab] vague smil[Bbm]e[Db]
You see, I'm [F]ready to do
it for [Bbm]everyone
[Gb]I stabbed you in the [C#]back,
who will [Cb]save you [A]now

[Verse 6]
Don't [A]worry, I've [E]done this before
It'll [Am]hurt [F]like [G]hell and [F]leave you [E]sore
No [Dm]use escap[F]ing,
hold [G]on to your ticket of [A5]gold
[A]And close your [Am]eyes
[Cb]One day [A]I know[Am] you

[Verse 7]
will sell [A5]your soul[Am]
[Cm]And trad[Am]e all you [F]are for silver a[A]nd gold
[A5]You'll get a[F]n odd advice
from [Em]a stranger
Take it, [G]from me, with love
[Gm]Once I was in

[Verse 8]
love with someone like you,
Engaged [Bbm]to be who[Gm]le,
[G]Got torn out [Gm]of your memories,
covered [Bb]in s[Eb]now

[Verse 9]
I [Eb]need to [G]find a way to [Eb]pass
on [Cm]the gift I [G]once received
[Eb]I'm ready to f[Cm]ace it
I'll [G]take my chances, if I am
Returning [Eb]to the d[Gb]eep
[Eb]Dark [Bbm]snow g[Bb]rave, so be it
[Gb]I should not[Eb] res[Ebm]t now [Bbm]but fo[Gb]reve[Eb]r!
[Gb]I'll feed [Bbm]the ferry[Bb]man's [Bbm]creed.
With an [Gb]empty promise for my lost [Am]soul[Bb][Gb]

[G][Am][G][F]
[E][Em][Am]

[Verse 10]
Must keep those [Am]black wings folded,
un[G]til the darkest night
[F]I steal a soul from [Dm]you to buy
me [Am]some [G]time[Am]

[Verse 11]
[Am]Pouring boiling [G]water on
[F]a solid [Cm]frozen flower
Black [Bb]nailed [Cm]finger of the creator
[Bbm]I take a bow, thank [Eb]for this opportunity

[F]
But I've [G]given the last ride for
all [Am]those close to kin

[Verse 13]
Must keep those [Am]black wings folded,
[F]until[Dm] the time is right,
[Am]To find the one whom I can s[F]teal
A soul [Dm]from, to buy more [Am]time
Must keep my secret[F]s untold,
un[Dm]til the wrongs are right,
[Am]The only one I could deceive[F],
I served my time,
[Dm]need you to fly [Am]with the Black Swan[A]
