Subject: CRD: Clapton's "Black Rose"
Here's a highly underappreciated gem off of EC's "Another Ticket" album
that I picked off over the weekend. Thanks go to Niels (na@ktas.dk) for
sparing me the task of typing in the lyrics. Share and enjoy!

BLACK ROSE by Troy Seals and Eddie Setser
Transcribed by Brian Davies (davies@ils.nwu.edu)
[G] [C] [G] [C] [G] [C] [G] [C]
[C] The mountain's [Em/B] high, the [Am] night is [G/B] cold.
[C] I feel the [G/B] sunshine; a [D/A] black rose [G] grows.
To[G]gether again, we're as [C] common as sin, they say,
[D] We just walk around the stones they [G] throw.
[G] Night after night, [C] we steal away to where
[F] Love don't see no [C] colors in the [G] shadows,
[F] Love don't see no [C] colors in the [G] shadows.
[C] The water's [Em/B] deep, [Am] cold and [G/B] still.
[C] I love the [G/B] feeling that [D/A] black rose [G] gives.
Chorus

[F] Love don't see no [C] colors in the [G] shadows.
