Black Velvet - Alannah Myles
Verse 1:
Dm
Mississippi in the middle of a dry spell;
Dm
Jimmy Rodgers on the Victola up high.
Dm
Mama's dancin', baby on her shoulders,
Dm
The sun is settin' like molasses in the sky.
A G
The boy could sing, knew how to move, everything;
F C
Always wanting more, he'd leave you longing for.
|Chorus:
|Gm C
| Black velvet in that little boy's smile.
|Gm Eb Bb
| Black velvet in with that slow southern style.
|Gm C
| A new religion that'll bring you to your knees,
|Bb A Dm
| Black velvet, if you please.
Verse 2:
Dm
Up in Memphis the music's like a heat wave,
Dm
White lightning, bound to drive you wild.
Dm
Mama's baby's in the heart of every school girl,
Dm
Love me tender, leaves 'em cryin' in the aisles.
A G
The way he moved it was a sin so sweet and true,
F C
Always wanting more, he'd leave you longing for.
Chorus:
Break:
Gm A Dm
Every word of every song that he sang was for you.
Gm Eb Bb
In a flash he was gone, it happened so soon.
A Dm
What could you dooooooooooo-?
|Chorus:x2
|Gm C
| Black velvet in that little boy's smile.
|Gm Eb Bb
| Black velvet in with that slow southern style.
|Gm C
| A new religion that'll bring you to your knees,
|Bb A Dm
| Black velvet, if you please.
