VERSE:
      F#m7/A        Am
In my eyes, indisposed
      G               F#m7/A
in disguise as no one knows
          F              E7
hides the face, lies the snake
    F#m7/A A7    Bb
the sun in my disgrace
        F#m7/A       Am     
Boiling heat, summer stench
            G                   F#m7/A
beneath the black the sky looks dead
        F                E7
call my name through the cream
         F#m7/A   A7        Bb
and i?ll hear you, scream again
 

CHORUS:
           F              E7         
Black hole sun, won't you come
    A    A7       C
and wash away the rain
           F              E7
Black hole sun, won't you come
          D
won't you come 
          E
won't you come
 
 
VERSE:
 
      F#m7/A         Am
Stuttering, cold and damp
          G               F#m7/A
steal the warm wind tired friend
          F               E7
times are gone for honest men
       F#m7/A A7      Bb
and sometimes far too long to snakes
      F#m7/A          Am   
In my shoes a walking sleep
       G               F#m7/A
and my youth i pray to keep
       F         E7
heaven send hell away
        F#m7/A    A7     Bb
no one sings like you anymore
 
 
CHORUS:
           F              E7         
Black hole sun, won't you come
    A    A7       C
and wash away the rain
           F              E7
Black hole sun, won't you come
          D     E
won't you come 
            F              E7         
Black hole sun, won't you come
    A    A7       C
and wash away the rain
           F              E7
Black hole sun, won't you come

          D                 C               E
won't you come ( black hole sun, black hole sun) x4
                                                                                         
                                                         
SOLO:

        F#m7/A         Am

Till you all just disappear

won't you come ( black hole sun, black hole sun)  x8
