Tonart: B minor
Verse 1
Dm
[Chorus]
C
Black, you are my enemy
Am
Dm
And I cannot get close to thee
C
Our life is ruled by enmity
Am
Dm
And I can't weaken that
C
The only way that I can see
Am
Dm
Is to hold you close to me
C
To love you for it's meant to be
Am
Dm
I weaken your attack
Verse 2
Dm
C
Am
Everything was lucked and downy
Dm
What was good was up from under
C
Am
Until black, that awful tender
Dm
Came and popped my sense of wonder
C
Am
All at once all eyes turned at him
Dm
Leaving me an unwatched body
C
Am
And it sagged, my body's rib cage
Dm
Out from under ogler's study
C
Am
Black was decomposing quickly
Dm
This was found offensive to me
C
Am
His disrespect for life's proprieties
Dm
C
Am
Made me scared he would destroy me

Am
Dm
Try to force him 'neath my level
C
Am
The only way to equal to him
Dm
Would be hit him with a shovel
C
But to really rise above him
Am
Dm
That would be the final evil
C
So instead I asked the sucker
Am
Dm
If he'd care to see my rooms
C
Am
And as a friend and as a comrade
Dm
And all the things that these implied
C
I made him leave what it was that he had
Am
Dm
Used to keep us unallied

Now black and I we are together

Our bonds are incorruptible
