Black Bess chords and lyrics - JIMMY BARNES, KASEY CHAMBERS

Lời & hợp âm

[Verse 1]
[G]Black bass and a white light
all covered in [C]blue
Now she [G]trips out on her cocaine
cause there's noth[D]ing to [C]do
Since [G]his man and his glam
were they [D]up and shot [C]through
You [G]lose most your love
and win [D]only a [C]few[D]
[G]Time, Lord, it drag[D]s heavy on [C]me
Sad [G]evenings alone
and my [D]thoughts are on [C]sea
[G]Fears are down here,
you [D]seldom can [C]see
You [G]have an idea of what [D]lonely can [C]be[D]
His de[G]light at the sight of a [D]worn apple skin
[C]Goes with his hat[G] in his hand
to the [D]next rubbish [C]bin
Con[G]soled by the loan
that the [D]bottle will [C]bring
Means as [G]much to his bid
as a [D]throne to a [C]king[D]
Yes, there's a [G]time, Lord,
that's [D]heavy on [C]me
Sad [G]evenings are long
when [D]my thoughts are on [C]the sheet
And [G]I fear that down here
you sel[D]dom can [C]see
Do you [G]have an idea
what [D]lonely can [C]be?[G][D][C]
[G][D][C][G][D][C]
[G][D][C]
[G]See with his eagle
on [D]his own shadow [C]fall
Or a [G]caged man with his bare hands
run [D]through a [C]brick wall
For [G]forty -five years [D]his life he had [C]shored
And he [G]wakes up one morning
to [D]find his [C]life [D]gone
[G]Time, Lord, it drags [D]heavy on me
[C]Sad eve[G]nings alone
with my [D]thoughts around [C]you
And [G]I feel it down here
you [D]seldom can [C]see
Do you [G]have an idea
of what [D]lonely can [C]be?[D]
[G]Frankie's Vietnam was [D]spent dodging lead
[C]But eventually the[G] enemy
blew [D]off [C]his head
His [G]weight was a feather
as they [D]carried him [C]in
Only [G]half of a friend sent
[D]home in a [C]tin[D][G]
Time, Lord, attracts [D]heavy on [C]me
Sad [G]evenings alone
when my [D]thoughts are on she
[C]And I fea[G]r that down here
you sel[D]dom can [C]see
Do you [G]have an idea
what [D]loneliness can mean?
