Black Velvet
INTRO

Em
Mississippi in the middle of a dry spell
Jimmy Rogers on the Victr'la up high
mama's danceing with baby on her shoulder
the sun is setting like molasses in the sky

Bridge
Bsus          B                Asus A
The boy could sing knew how to move everything
Gsus   G            Dsus            D
always wanting more he'd leave you longing for

CHORUS
Am7                   D   
Black velvet and the little boy smile
Am7                  Fmaj7             C
Black velvet and the slow southern style
Am7                    D
A new religion that'll bring you to your knees
C7   [C6] B           Em
black velvet if you please
----------------------------------------------------

Em
Up in Memphis the music's like a heatwave
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 aisle

B                            A
The way he moved, it was a sin, so sweet and true
G                     D
Always wanting more, he'd leave you longing for

CHORUS

A                   B                         E
Every word of every song that he sang is for you
A                  F                        C            E D C B           In a flash he was gone  -  it happened so soon    -    what could
     B7
you do?

SOLO    Em
