Black Dress

[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

But it was nothing it didn't matter


[Chorus 1]
   B                               
To me our lives are barely built to
 C#m
 last
   B                               
How did you creep up on me so damn 
F#m  E  A
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                               
To me our lives are fast 
   C#m
approaching death
   B                               
So let's go out in my suit and your
       F#m  E  A
 black dress
   C#m
My dear?
