    Black Velvet
    Tab Chords And Lyrics
    By Alannah Myles
    Em
    Mississippi in the middle of a dry spell
    Jimmy Rogers on the Victrola up high
    Mama's dancin' with baby on her shoulder
    The sun is settin' like molasses in the sky
    Bsus B Asus A
    The boy could sing, knew how to move, everything
    G D
    Always wanting more, he'd leave you longing for

    Am D
    Black velvet and that little boy's smile
    Am F C
    Black velvet with that slow southern style
    Am D C7 B7 Em
    A new religion that'll bring ya to your knees - Black velvet if you please

    Em
    Up in Memphis the music's like a heatwave
    White lightning, bound to drive you wild
    Mama's baby's in the heart of every school girl
    "Love me tender" leaves 'em cryin' in the aisle
    Bsus B Asus A
    The way he moved, it was a sin, so sweet and true
    G D
    Always wanting more, he'd leave you longing for

    Ch
    Am B7 Em
    Every word of every song that he sang was for you
    Am F C B7 Em
    In a flash he was gone, it happened so soon, what could -- You do?

    BREAK - Em
    Ch
    Ch
    Em
    If you please, if you please, if you please
