THE LADY IN BLACK - URIAH HEEP chords
Start Jamming...
[Am]
She came to me one morning, one lonely Sunday morning, [G] her long hair flowing in the [Am] midwinter wind.
I know not how she found me, for in darkness I was [G] walking and destruction lay around me
from [Am] a fight I could [G]
[Am] [G] [Am]
not win.
She asked me name, I know [A] this, I said the need within [G] some men to fight and kill their
brothers, but [Am] I fought out of love for God.
And I begged her give me horses to trample down my enemies, [G] so eager was my passion [Am] to
devour this waste of life.
Ah, ah, ah, [G] ah, ah, ah, [Am] ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, [G] ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, [Am] ah, ah, ah,
ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah.
But she would not think of battle that reduces men to animals [G] so easy to make an end, [Am] yet
impossible to end.
For she, the mother of all men, did counsel me so wisely, [G] then I fear to walk alone again
And [Am] asked if she would stay AHH
[G] [Am]
[G] Oh [Am]
lady, let your hand I cried
Oh, let me rest here at your side
[G] Have faith and trust in me, she said
[Am] and filled my heart with life
There is no strength in number
Have no such misconceptions
[G] But when you need me
Be assured [Am] I won't be far away
I [G] [Am]
[G] [Am]
lost her in smoke, she turned away
And though I found no words to [G] say
I stood and watched until I [Am] saw her black cloak disappear
Her is no easier, but now
[G] or each time I [Am] feel the delay
And if one day she comes to you
Speak deeply from her words, so [G] wisely
Courage from her, ask your [Am] prize and say hello for me
