Tonalité : A major
Verse 1
G
Well, you wonder why I
always dress in black
Why you never see bright
A
colors on my back
C
G
And why does my appearance
C
G
seem to have a somber tone?
A
Well, there's a reason
D
for the things that I have on
G
I wear the black for the poor
and the beaten down,
A
Living in the hopeless, hungry side of town.
C
G
I wear it for the prisoner
C
G
who has long paid for his crime,
A
But he's there because
D
he's a victim of the times.
G
I wear the black for those
who've never read,
A
Or listen to the words that Jesus said
C
G
About the road to happiness
C
through love and charity
G
A
Why, you'd think he is talking
D
straight to you and me
G
Well, we're doing mighty fine, I do suppose
In our streak of lightnin' cars
A
and fancy clothes
C
G
But just so we're reminded
C
G
of the ones who are held back
A
D
Up front there ought to be a man in black
G
I wear it for the sick and lonely old
For the reckless ones
A
whose bad trip left them cold
C
G
I wear the black in mourning
C
G
for the lives that could have been
A
Each week we lose a hundred
D
fine young men
G
And I wear it for the thousands
who have died
A
Believing that the Lord was on their side
C
G
I wear it for another hundred
C
G
thousand who have died
A
D
Believing that we all were on their side
G
Well, there's things that never will be right,
I know
And things keep changing
A
everywhere you go
C
G
But till we start to make a move
C
G
to make a few things right
A
D
You'll never see me wear a suit of white
G
Oh, I'd love to wear a rainbow every day
And tell the world that
A
everything's okay
C
G
But I'll try to carry off a
C
G
little darkness on my back
A
Till things are brighter,
D
G
I'm the man in black you
