Tom: G
D G D7 G
I don't want you to hold me tight
Cadd4 C G Em
Till you're mine to hold

And I don't even want you to stay all night
Cadd4 C D
Just until the moon turns cold
[Chorus]

She said All I need is black roses white rhythm and blues
Bm C D G
And somebody who cares when you lose
G Bm C D G Em G Em
Black roses white rhythm and blues
[Verse 2]
D G D7 G
You say that somebody really loves you
Cadd4 C G Em
You'd find her if you just knew how
D G D7 G
But honey everyone in the whole wide world
Cadd4 C D
Is probably asleep by now
[Chorus]
G Bm C D G
Wishing for black roses white rhythm and blues
Bm C D G
And somebody who cares when you lose
G Bm C D C D7 G
Black roses white rhythm and blues
[Bridge]

Close your eyes sleep away all your blues
C D G G/F# Em
I've done everything but lie
A D
Now I don't know what else I can do
