Gold And Black

Intro 

Dadd9 Cadd9 (x3) 
G A A6 A7 

 
  Dadd9                 Cadd9 
I'm headed down past the border of conviction 
Dadd9            Cadd9 
Needing something harder than prescription 
Dadd9                 Cadd9 
I need a high that'll break my mortal mind 
G                                   A  A6 A7 A6 
Something so much bigger than our time 
 

 
Dadd9                 Cadd9 
Too much exposure captured from another distance 
Dadd9          Cadd9 
Full disclosure riding on a sixpence 
Dadd9             Cadd9 
Scarlet dreams are bursting from my seams 
G                        A  A6 A7 
Real life is only in my dreams 
 

 
G            D 
Free fallin' back into your eyes 
A           G      D 
Vagabond in hazey skies 
G                D 
Winter wind only blows the cold within 
E7sus              A7sus A6 
Baby we gotta act fast 
E7sus                     A7 
Show me where paradise is at 
N.C. 
In a land of gold and black

G A A6 A7 


 
Dadd9          Cadd9 
Lost illusions fixed on what I've written 
Dadd9                 Cadd9 
Standing back from the body that I've been in 
Dadd9                Cadd9 
Cold and clean that's how my soul had seemed 
G                             A A6 A7 
I miss you but damn do I miss me 
 

 
Em                        A7sus 
Beneath the Bowie playing gently through my dreams 
Em                    A7sus 
Moving on far from my past dependency 
G                             A 
The smokestacks beckon as old faces take their leave 
G                      A7sus           A7 
Bum me a cigarette I'm drifting off to sleep 

And I see: 
 

 
Dadd9          Cadd9 
Burning ashes, green and undetermined 
Dadd9          Cadd9 
Facts of idols spoken like a sermon 
Dadd9           Cadd9 
I am good I can make it as I should 
G                                 A  A6 A7 
Rings around an ancient block of wood 
 

 
G            D 
Free fallin' back into your eyes 
A           G      D 
Vagabond in hazey skies 
G                D 
Winter wind only blows the cold within 
E7sus              A7sus A7 
Baby we gotta act fast 
E7sus                     A7sus 
Show me where paradise is at 
     A7 
In a land of gold and black
