Chords for Uriah Heep - Lady in black - lyrics

[Am] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
She came to me one morning one lonely Sunday morning
[G] Her long hair flowing in the [Am] midwinter wind
I know not how she found me for in darkness I was walking [G] and destruction lay around me
_ [Am] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [G] _ _
[Am] _ _ _ _ [G] _ _ [Am] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ She asked me name I folded I said the need within some men [G] to fight and kill their brothers
[Am] _ _ _ I begged her to give me horses trample down my enemies [G] so eager was my passion [Am] to devour this with of life _ _
_ _ [G] _ _ [Am] _ _ _
[G] But _ [Am] _ _ _ she would not make a battle that reduces men to animals [G] so easy to make an end [Am] and impossible to end
For she the mother of all men counseled me so wisely then [G] I feared to walk alone again [Am] and asked if she would stay
I, _ _ [G] _ _ [Am] _ _ _ _
[G] _ _ [Am] _ _ _ oh lady lend your hand I cried oh let me rest here at your [G] side have faith and trust in me she [Am] said and filled my heart with life
There is no strength in numbers I've no such misconception [G] but when you need me be [Am] assured I won't be far away
I, _ _ [G] _ [Am] thus _ _ _
[G] _ _ [Am] _ _ _ _ having spoken she turned away and though I found no words to [G] say I stood and watched up till I saw [Am] her black cloak disappear
My labor is no easier, but now I know I'm not alone.
[G] I'll find you, Lord, each time I [Am] think upon that windy day.
And if one day she comes to you, speak deeply from her words so [G] wisely.
Courage from her, ask her prize [Am] and say hello for me.
_ Ah, ah, _ [G] _ _ [Am] _ ah, ah.
