Chords for Uriah Heep - Lady In Black

_ _ _ _ _ _ _
She came to me one morning one lonely Sunday [G] morning
Her long hair flowing in the [Am] midwinter wind
I know [Am] not how she found me for in darkness I was walking
[G] And destruction lay around me from a [Am] fight I could not win
Ah, _ _ [G] _ _ _
[Am] _ _ _ _ [G] _ _ [Am] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ she asked me name my foe then
I set the need within some men [G] to fight and kill their brothers
But [Am] I thought of love for God
And I begged her give me horse and to trample down my enemy
[G] So eager was my passion [Am] to devour this waste of life _ _
_ _ [G] _ _ [Am] _ _ But [G] _ _ [Am] _ _ _ she would not think of battle that reduces men to animals
[G] So easy to begin and [Am] yet impossible to end
Or she the mother of all men
Counseled me so wisely that [G] I
Bared to walk alone again [Am] and
Asked if she would stay _ _
_ _ [G] _ _ [Am] _ _ I
[G] _ _ [Am] _ _ _ Oh lady, lend your hand, I cried
Or let me rest near at your [G] side
Have faith and trust in me, she [Am] said
And filled my heart with life
There is no strength in numbers
I've no such misconception
[G] But when you need me, be [Am] assured
I won't be far away
I
_ _ [G] _ _ [Am] _ _ _ _
[G] _ _ [Am] _ _ _ Thus having spoke, she turned away
And though I found no words to [G] say
I stood and watched her until I [Am] saw her
Black coat disappear
My labor is no easier
But now I know I'm not [G] alone
I'll find you hard each time I [Am] think of
On that windy day
And if one day she comes to you
Speak me from her words so [G] I take courage
From a ash of [A] prize and say hello for me I _
_ _ [G] _ _ [Am] _ _ _ _
[G] _ _ [Am] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [G] _ _ [Am] _ _ _ _
[G] _ _ [Am] _ _ _ _ _ _
