BLACK SILK RIBBON
Song taken from the album the sun came out by 7 worlds collide. Song sung by Kt
tunstall and bic Runga
Em, am, G, B major
It was cold
she was colder
she wore a black silk ribbon in a bow around her throat
for her lover
she walked the halls her young heart singing
Em, G, D,
Ooo!
Em, am, G, B major
He left a note
on the pillow
in the lamplight
the words were dancing
something smooth
on her fingers
the black silk ribbon like a cold comfort
Em, G, D
Ooo!
Em, am, G, B major
I'm leaving he said and I'll find my own way home
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/k/kt_tunstall/black_silk_ribbon_crd.html ]
Em, am, G, B major
And the hounds in the courtyard
they were waiting for their master
when a cry
from the window
"don't you love me ?"
Em, G, D
Ooo!
Em, am, G, B major
But for him it was simple
it wasn't till he noticed there was something in her eyes
in the mirror
the ribbon came as a surprise, he cried
Em, G, D
Ooo!
Em, am, G, B major
leave me she said and you'll find your own way home
C, G, D
But wasn't there something better waiting
Didn't you feel it too?
Em, G, B major, D
See the black silk ribbon fly, fly
see the black silk ribbon fly, fly
and the hounds
they were waiting
C, G, D
But wasn't there something better waiting
didn0t you feel it too?
Wasn't there something between me and you?
between me and you?
