Black Swan

Am

there was a black swan outside the 
palace
it was appointed by the king
and people took it as a sign that he
 needed more time
but you said "I ain't afraid of no 
black bird!"

          Am
Oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh oh oh
                     G
oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
         F
oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
       G          Am
oh oh oh oh oh oh oh

Am

there was a rumor of a ghost in the 
bedroom,
hanging in and around the bed
but by the time the moon rose, you 
had taken off your clothes
and had the pillow under your head

Am    C F   G Am
Oh oh oh oh oh oh...

Am

there was the face you saw above you
in the fever of a hot black dream
but it was made out of paper and 
glue
and you were hoping for something a 
little more realistic
you were hoping for the head of the 
queen

Am    G F   G Am
Oh oh oh oh oh oh...
