Текст песни Ed Harcourt — Black Dress + аккорды для гитары
Вступление
[Intro]
E A
E A
[Verse 1]
E
For days I've searched for the words
A
So I don't make a mess of this
A
I'll trade my eyes for a fleeting wish
E
I woke at 7 a.m.
A
The cold air was not becoming
A
This tune I started humming
[Verse 2]
E
And you lay there so still
A
With dark eyes shut and whiskey breath
A
You hadn't taken off your black dress
E
The curtain fell from its rail
A
I shut the window so it wouldn't shatter
A
But it was nothing it didn't matter
[Chorus 1]
B C#m
To me our lives are barely built to last
B F#m E A
How did you creep up on me so damn fast
N.C. E A
My dear?
[Verse 3]
E
I sat in the kitchen and thought
A
I've had a few knocks here and there
A
Was mostly my fault so I didn't care
E
You said I have a bad side
A
It comes when all the clocks have stopped
A
I feel my heart begin to drop
[Chorus 2]
B C#m
To me our lives are fast approaching death
B F#m E A
So let's go out in my suit and your black dress
C#m
My dear?
[Instrumental]

You will come back

You will come back
E
You will come back
A
You will come back
