Black, black, black
                   E7
Is the color of my true love’s hair.
Am           Dm   Dm7  Dm
Her lips are like some roses fair,
            Gm                 Am       Dm
She has the sweetest smile and gentlest hands,
           Cm Cm7
I love the ground
Cm          Bm  Bm7  Bm
Whereon she stands.

Instrumental: Dm7 | Dm7

I love my love and well she knows,

I love the ground whereon she goes,
           Gm     Am         Dm7
I wish the day it soon would come

When she and I

Could be as one.

I go to the Clyde and I mourn and weep,

But satisfied I never could sleep.
                 Gm             Am        Dm7
I’ll write her a letter, just a few short lines
           Cm               Bm
And suffer death a thousand times.
