Tuning - half-step down 

Em
Take a look at my life, all black 
G 
Take a look at my clothes, all black 
C 
Like Johnny Cash, all black 
D 
Like the Rolling Stones wanna paint it black 

Em
Like the night that we met, all black 
G 
Like the color of your dress, all black 
C 
Like the seats in my Cadillac 
D 
I used to see red now it's just all black 

Em                          
As long as I could remember 
G
I dreamed in black and white 
C                                  
As I grew up and the sun went down 
D
I never felt more alright 
Em                             
My mother she used to tell me, 
G
"Son you better get to church" 
C                
It's a dark dark world and there's evil out there 
D
And you know it's only getting worse" 

Em                                   
Yeah, I never been much for weddings 
G
or anniversaries 
C                                     
But I go to a funeral if I'm invited 
D
any day of the week 
Em                                    
Some people say that I sound strange, 
G
some say that I'm not right 
C                               
But I find beauty in this world 
D
every single night

Em                      
I sat down at her table 
G
at the end of the night 
C
She was having black coffee and a cigarette 
D
She wasn't wearing white 

Em                                         
She said, "People tell me that I'm strange 
G
they say that I'm not right" 
C                                        
She said, "The only time I feel alive is 
D
in the dead of night" 
Em
I think I found the one for me
