(intro) Bm Gm
Bm Gm
She's dressed in black again
Bm Gm
And i'm falling down again
Bb C
Down to the floor again
Bb C
I'm begging for more again
Bm Gm
But oh what can you do
Bm
When she's dressed in black
( Bm Gm )
Bm Gm
My mind wanders endlessly
Bm Gm
On paths where she's leading me
Bb C
With games that she likes to play
Bb C
And words that she doesn't say
Bm Gm
Not when we're alone
Bm
And she's dressed in black
( Bm Gm )
Bm Gm
As a picture of herself
Bm Gm
She's a picture of the world
Bm
A reflection of you
Gm
A reflection of me
Bm
And it's all there to see
Gm Am
If you only give in
Bb C
To the fire within
Bm Gm
Oh, dressed in black again
Shadows fall onto me
And she stands there over me
And waits to encompass me
I lay here helplessly
But oh what can you do
When she's dressed in black
Dressed in black again
