Black Beauty Chords

   
Black Beauty by Lana Del Rey
Produced by Rick Nowels

All chords are played with 4 beats unless [specified in square brackets]. Chords 
are for the piano, just like in the song. However, these are the basic chords. The 
real song uses different chord inversions. Just experiment to see what sounds 
right to you and your voice.

I'm sure this would sound very nice on guitar too. Just transpose down 5 semitones 
and put a capo on the 5th fret to play easy guitar chords in the key of C.
 
Intro
F, Dm, Bb, F [2], C [2]

Verse
           F
I paint my nails black
         Dm                     Bb
I dye my hair a darker shade of brown
                             F [2]
Cause you like you like your women Spanish
      C [2]
Dark strong and proud

               F
And paint the sky black
            Dm
You said if you could have your way
              Bb
You'd make a night time all today
                F [2]        C [2]
So it'd fit the mood of your song
 

    Bb             Dm
And oh, what can I do?
    Bb              C
Nothing, my sparrow blue.

Oh, what can I do?
        Bb                             Dm [3] C [1]
Life is beautiful but you don't have a clue.
F             Am
Sun and ocean blue.
       Bb                               Dm

My wedding dress black leather too

You have no room for light.

Seem so dark blue
