Black Is The Color (chrom)

Black Is The Color Of My True Love’s Hair

Southern Appalachian folk song

Key: Em

6 7 -8

Black, black, black
-7 -8 6 6 -5 6 -6* -5 -4

is the col-or of my true love's hair
6 -8 6 7 -8 -7 7 -7

Her lips are like a rose so fair

-8 -9 10 10 -9 -7

And the pret-ti-est face

7 -7 8 -8 -77 6

and the neat-est hands
6 -8 6 7 -8 -7 -8 8

I love the grass where on she stands
7 -8 -7 7 -6* 6
She with the won-drous hair
