Chord Gitar dan Lirik Lagu Black Ribbons Oleh Gretchen Peters

INTRO: Am

I built this house with my bare hands
On the

shores of Louisian
Took my sweet cher Jolie-Ann
For my own, my very own

Now every man has got his pride
I tried to

shelter and provide
But I can’t stop this poison tide
Rolling in, rolling in

CHORUS:
Now I’ve

nothing left to give her
No answer to her prayers
Black ribbons on the water
Black ribbons for her hair

Then came the wind, then came the rain
We de

fied that hurricane
And we built this house again
Stone by stone, stone by stone

But in the gulf of Mexico
Some five

thousand feet below
Oh, the devil’s blood it flows
On and on, on and on

CHORUS:
I’ve

nothing left to give her
No answer to her prayers
Black ribbons on the water
Black ribbons for her hair

INSTRUMENTAL: Am D Am D G Am

Oh, how her eyes they used to shine
Fairest

in Evangeline
Now they stare so cold and blind
Through my soul, oh lord, my soul

CHORUS:
She was

tangled in the salt-grass
Not a bullet left to spare
Black ribbons on the water
Black ribbons for her hair
Black ribbons on the water
Black ribbons for her hair

OUTRO: Am D Am D G Am (3x)
