[Verse]
F
I paint my nails black,
Dm Bb
I dye my hair a darker shade of brown,
F
'Cause you like your women,
C
Spanish, dark, strong and proud.
F
You paint the sky black,
Dm
You said if you could have your way,
Bb
You'd make a nighttime world today,
F C
So it'd suit the mood of your soul.
Bb Dm
Oh, what can I do?
Bb C
Nothing my sparrow, blue.
[Chorus]
F Am Dm
Oh, what can I do?
C Bb
Life is beautiful,
Dm C
But you don't have a clue.
F Am Dm
Sun and ocean, blue,
C Bb
That magnificence,
Dm C
It don't make sense to you.
Bb Dm C
Black beauty, oh-oh-oh-oh.
Bb Dm C
Black beauty, oh-oh-oh-oh.
[Verse]
F
I paint the house black,
Dm
My wedding dress black leather too.
Bb
You have no room for light,
F C
Love is lost on you.
F
I keep my lips red,
Dm
To seem like cherries in the spring.
Bb
Darling, you can't let everything,
F C
Seem so dark blue.
Bb Dm
Oh, what can I do,
Bb C
To turn you on or get through you?
[Chorus]
F Am Dm
Oh, what can I do?
C Bb
Life is beautiful,
Dm C
But you don't have a clue.
F Am Dm
Sun and ocean, blue,
C Bb
That magnificence,
Dm C
It don't make sense to you.
Bb Dm C
Black beauty, oh-oh-oh-oh.
Bb Dm C
Black beauty, oh-oh-oh-oh.
[Bridge]
F Dm
Black beauty, oh-oh-oh-oh,
F Dm
Black beauty, oh-oh-oh.
F Dm
Black beauty, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh,
F Dm
Black beauty, baby, black beauty, baby.
[Chorus]
F Am Dm
Oh, what can I do?
C Bb
Life is beautiful,
Dm C
But you don't have a clue.
F Am Dm
Sun and ocean, blue,
C Bb
That magnificence,
Dm C
It don't make sense to you.
Bb Dm C
Black beauty, oh-oh-oh-oh.
Bb Dm C
Black beauty, oh-oh-oh-oh.
Bb Dm C
Black beauty, oh-oh-oh-oh.
Bb Dm C
Black beauty, oh-oh-oh-oh.
