Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
Black [C]is the color of [D]my true [Em]love's hair
His lips are [C]like [D]some rose's [Em]fair
He's got [C]the sweetest smile
an[D]d the gentlest [Em]arms
And I love [C]the ground
[D]whereon He [Em]stands
I love [C]my love, [D]an d well [Em]He knows
I love [C]the ground
[D]whereon [Em]he goes
And how [C]I wish [D]the day would [Em]come
That he and [C]I c[D]ould be as o[Em]ne
I go to the [C]Clyde,
[D]and I mourn [Em]an d weep
For [C]satisfied, [D]I no longer can[Em] be
I write him a let[C]ter,
[D]just a few short [Em]lines
And I suffer death
[C]Ten tho[D]usand tim[Em]es
I love [C]my Lord
An[D]d well He [Em]knows
I love [C]the ground
[D]Whereon [Em]He goes
And how I [C]wish [D]The day would [Em]come
That he and [C]I c[D]ould be a[Em]s one
Black [C]is the color [D]of [Em]my true love's hair
His lips [C]are like [D]some [Em]rose's fair
He's got the sweetest [C]smile
[D]And the gentlest han[Em]ds
And I love the [C]ground
[D]Whereon [Em]he stands
And I love [C]the ground
[D]Whereon he [Em]stands
