[G]
[E] Alright, it's crazy sometimes.
[A] Um, [N] hey let me uh, let me just, I need to ask someone at the [G] board a question.
Hey Brett, are you there?
Can I hear you?
[Ab] Brett, do you have the tape from last night?
[G] This is just a personal thing I have to take care of.
Thanks for your assignment.
[Ab] [N] Do you have the tape from last night?
Uh, is it back there?
Oh, it's on the bus.
Okay, never mind.
Actually, I have a dapper.
No, I need a cassette.
So, um, I'll get that before I leave, okay?
Okay.
Okay.
Alright, just had to take [G] care of that.
Cause if he had it, and I know that we're leaving right after we finish playing,
I was gonna have you pass me back so I could grab it and then bring it back up.
Cause I [Fm] think I could trust [G] you to do that.
But uh, next time.
There won't be a next time if you don't fuckin' skip.
[Bm] This song's called [G] Black.
[E] [D]
[A] [E] Say hi to all my friends at Nutri.
[Bm] We [A] [E]
[A] [Em] [E]
[Bm] [E]
draw [A] them together
[E] On filthy sheets [Bm] of [A] clay
[E] Rakes spread out [A] before me
[E] As worm of skin
Oh, [A] fire burns
Oh, [E]
wildflowers [Bm] [A] fall
As the earth does its song
[E] And now, dear, I [A] tasted a breeze
[E]
It's taking a turn
[G] Oh, [C]
and all I thought I [G] was
[Em] And I [C]
know she gave me all
[G] [Em]
Yet she holds [E] [Em] down [D] my finger hand
[C] Taking me across [G] a wild, [E] wild land
[Em] [D] To the fields of [C] the morning morn
To the plains of the night
[E] Oh, I [A] take a walk outside
[E] Surrounded by [A] sunken debris
[E] Oh, I can [A] feel the
Stars [E]
[C] as they spin
[Em] Round my head
I spin, oh, [C] spin
I'll wake up so I can
[Em] Hear [D] the number
Great [C] old bluegrass
Oh, I [Em] want to [D] see you
[C] Oh, when I wash your blood
And [Em] talk to you again
[D] Oh, the love gone bad
[C] Turned my world to black
I'm glad [D] to know that I'll see
[C] All that I am
[Em] All I'll be
[D] Now
[C] [E] [Em]
[D] Oh, [C]
[Em] no, some do now
[D] Beautiful as a crown on a yule tree
[C] Stuck in somebody [Em] else's sky
I'm a wild, [D] wild, [C] wild
She gave [Em] me my
[D] Oh, [C] [Em] I
