[Am] _ [C] _ _ [D] _ _ [Bm] _ [D] _ _
_ [G] Black-eyed Susie, [E] she works the corner out [C] On the block where [D] she was raised
And [G] I don't know how [E] but she finds some comfort [C] Amongst the rubble and [D] the queen and lace
up [C] But _ nobody [D] seemed to notice [G] her [D] beauty [Em] wither
away [D] _
[C] Oh, black-eyed Susie [D] girl, how much more [G] can
you take _ _ _ _ _ _ We were lovers [E] back when we were younger [C] boy
We all know [D] how that can go It's like [G] one day it's [Em] roses and the next
it's over [C] And nobody asks, [D] ain't nobody wanna know
[C] Since I found [D] a place far [G] away [D] from this [G] dirty _ [D] heat
[C] On black-eyed Susie, [D] she's still losing ground to [G] the _ heat _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [Em] _ _ _

[G] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[C] _ _ _ _ _ [D] _ _ [G] _
[C] But now some may give in to the wind _ They'll take the plight just to [Am]
forget [G] the
pain _ _ _ _ [C] Ah, but Susie, she's dug in too deep
She knows she's been beat [Em] all of it still [D] She stands [Bm] around and waits [G] all but as soon
the season change We'll bring the winter [C] wind
Susie, she'll [G] try to fight it But it won't be long before [E] the cold [C] embrace
So long [D] November will decide it [C] _ _
What am [D] I to do?
_ [G] Oh, what [D] am I [Em] to say?
[G] I've [C] just walked from a [D] distance And Susie [G] withers away _
