Black Velvet

Verse 1
FmiMississippi in the middle of a dry spell;
FmiJimmy Rodgers on the victola up high.
FmiMama's dancin' baby on her shoulders,
FmiThe sun is settin' like molasses in the sky.
CThe boy could soon know how to Bmove everything;
AsAlways wanting more, Eshe'd leave you longing for.

  *Chorus*
  BmiBlack Velvet in that Eslittle boy's smile.
  BmiBlack velvet in with that F#slow southern C#style.
  BmiA new religon that'll Esbring you to your knees,
  C#Black Cvelvet, if you Fmiplease.

Verse 2
Up in Memphis the music's like a heat wave,
White lightening, bound to drive you wild.
Mama's baby's in the heart of every school girl,
Love me tender leaves 'em cryin' in the aisles.
The way he moved it was a sin so sweet and true,
Always wanting more, he'd leave you longing for.


*Chorus*


BmiEvery word of every Csong that he sang was for Fmiyou.
BmiIn a flash he was F#gone, it happened so C#soon.
CWhat could you Fmidooooooooooo-?

*Chorus*
