Chords for The Small Glories - Black Waterside

He came in a group called Black Mountains.
[G] The original title is Black Waterside.
And the guitar part was originally composed
by a wonderful Scottish guitarist
by the name of Bertie Ansh,
from a group called Pentangle.
[B] And the storyline is [G] an English girl
is [F#] walking through the woods
and she meets an Irish bloke.
They fall in love instantly and [G] go hang out in the bushes
and constantly in a [F#] relationship.
[G] And when everything is said and done,
he grabs his clothes and walks away and [F#] breaks.
And she says, where are you going?
You [C#] were just lying on my breast
and you promised you'd stay with me [G] forever.
And he says, that was then, this is now, I've gotta [C#] go.
So [F#] she curses him and calls him terrible names.
And he says, stop cursing me and go home
and cry about it in your father's garden.
So we like to say this is not a song
you'd sing at a wedding, but it's sort of really great.
[B] So this is an honor version of Jimmy Page's version
of Bertie Ansh's version of the traditional tune, Black Woman.
