### Starts with G, repeated for 8 beats
G              F            C
The lights are off again 
            G
She took me by surprise 
         F                  C
She`s so sensitive 
               G
This shit just happens sometimes 
         F                  C
She`s my everything 
              G
She`s my best friend and more 
            F               C
We don`t do anything 
          G
We didn`t do the day 
  F
Before you go 
    Em
You oughta know 
             Eb                        Dsus4         D 
That I didn`t mean to hurt you, I just wanted you to know 
###1st chorus
G               F                C
Black tears are falling down her face 
         Bb    C    Dm   (C Dm)
And I am wrong
G               F               C                   Bb    C    Dm   (C Dm)
Black tears are falling and she won`t say what I`ve done
G               F                  C      Bb    C    Dm   (C Dm)
She`s sitting here beside me, then she is gone
Bb          C   Dm              G
Black tears are falling, falling 
###2nd verse
G        F         C
Remember long ago 
         G
Together laughing, loving 
      F         C
Oh so long ago 
             G
When we were buying something 
         F            C
Life was simple then 
              G
But she`s not happy now, and I 
           F         C
Don`t feel anything 
             G
Her lips are moving 
     F
I am mesmerised 
   Em
By tiny lies 
    Eb                                 Dsus4           D
I`m watching as the shapes are drawing slowly from her eyes 
###2nd chorus
G               F                C
Black tears are falling down her face 
         Bb    C    Dm   (C Dm)
And I am wrong 
                                                                          
G               F               C                   Bb    C    Dm   (C Dm)
Black tears are falling and she won`t say what I`ve done
G               F             C      Bb    C    Dm   (C Dm)
She`s sitting here beside me, then she is gone
Bb          C   Dm           C
Black tears are falling, falling 
Bb          C   Dm           C   Dsus4    D
Black tears are falling, falling
