Key:
Dm* Get in the car we're late for the gig But don't go too fast it's been
C E Am snowin' since 10 am
C E Am We never will be this free again
Dm Just over the bridge, crossin' the Gatineau
C To the side that I know where the
E Am light becomes strange
C E Am And we'll never be this free again.
Dm On our way home singin' the songs that we learned on our mother’s knee
C E Am Four black sheep in need
C E Am Tryin' or cryin' to be free.
D Dsus4 Jesse's been drinkin' again and
D Asus4 A Asus4 again he won't believe, he can't
A believe
Asus4 A Asus4 A G We can see right through his soul.
Dm Mom and Dad are on their way, they know these roads
C E They've been travelling a lonely
Am life.
C E Black sheep they too were born in
Am the night.
Dm And we'll meet at the lodge to suck on life as we look up at the sky
C E Am that we don't feel the same.
Continues after the ad
C E Am And we'll never be this free again.
F#m May walked away in the snow sayin'
Esus4 E she was through.
F#m And Frere Jacques would never want to ring the bell to tell us all
Esus4 E We already knew
A* That out there in the freezing
Bm* night we will not be all right
A* Four black sheep travellin' different speeds Angry at the world Losing their way in the cold blue snow.
E7* Red on black on white - it glowed.
C E Am We will never feel that free again.
C E Am We will never feel that free again.
Em* After the show back on the road to Montreal
D F#m There were diamonds piercin' our
Bm eyes
D E And the snow pilin' up on either
Bm side.
Em Jesse took the wheel, there was an appeal to stop the ride
D F#m but we were just four black sheep
Bm in the night.
D F#m Bm Tryin' to hold on for our lives.
Em We never made it home - spinnin' out on the road We took to the sky where we were
D F#m Bm finally free for the last time.
D F#m Bm Flyin' high at the end of our lives.
D F#m Four black sheep deep in the white
Bm light
D F#m Bm Red on black on white in the night
D F#m I said red on black on white in
Bm the night
D F#m I said red on black on white in
Bm the night
D F#m Bm Red on black on white in the night
D F#m Bm Red on black on white in the night…
