### Version on the album is performed at appx. 126bpm
### Paranthetic reference (C Dm) in chorus are done as eighth beat chords
### Listen to the recording to get the feel for it, or leave em off :)
### This is my 1st submission to OLGA, and is all my own. Hope you like it
### Starts with G, repeated for 8 beats
The lights are off again
She took me by surprise
She's so sensitive
This shit just happens sometimes
She's my everything
She's my best friend and more
We don't do anything
We didn't do the day
Before you go
You oughta know
That I didn't mean to hurt you, I just wanted you to know
###1st chorus
Black tears are falling down her face
( )
And I am wrong
( )
Black tears are falling and she won't say what I've done
( )
She's sitting here beside me, then she is gone
Black tears are falling, falling
###2nd verse
Remember long ago
Together laughing, loving
Oh so long ago
When we were buying something
Life was simple then
But she's not happy now, and I
Don't feel anything
Her lips are moving
I am mesmerised
By tiny lies
I'm watching as the shapes are drawing slowly from her eyes
###2nd chorus
Black tears are falling down her face
( )
And I am wrong
( )
Black tears are falling and she won't say what I've done
( )
She's sitting here beside me, then she is gone
Black tears are falling, falling
Black tears are falling, falling
### Bridge
Losing Lisa
Losing Lisa
Losing Lisa
And there's nothing I can do
###10-bar piano solo - chords same as 1st chorus, repeated twice
Black tears are falling, falling (ooh ooh)
Black tears are falling, falling (ooh ooh)
Black tears are falling, falling (ooh ooh)
Black tears are falling, falling (ooh ooh)
