BLACK – Sarah McLachlan
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Artist: Sarah McLachlan
Song: Black
Album: Solace
Tuning: Standard
Capo: 2nd fret
Intro:
As the walls are closing in
And the colors fade to black
And my eyes are falling fast and deep into me
And I follow the tracks that lead me down
And I never follow what’s right
And they wonder sometimes when they see all the
Sadness and pain the truth brings to light
Chorus:
’cause I can’t see no reason
What is blind cannot see
’cause I want what is pleasin’
All I take should be free
What I rob from the innocent ones
What I’d steal from the womb
If I cried me a river of all my confessions
Would I drown in my shallow regret
~ Solo ~
As the walls are closing in
And the colors fade to black
And the night is falling fast and deep into the sea
And in darkness all that I can see
The frightened and the weak
Are forced to cling to mistakes they know
Nothing of at mercy are the meek
~ Repeat Chorus ~
If I cried me a river of all my confessions
Would I drown in my shallow regret
