Black Dress Lyrics & Tabs by The Courage
Black Dress
guitar chords lyrics
The Devil wears a black dress
And waits for me inside there
With every hint of madness
Growing like a sickness
She's pretty as a picture
And everybody knows her
The Devil wears a black dress
And she knows me by name
She said, I've gotta down the line of the river
And I'd like to show you my bones
And I've got a house on the hills in the winter
And I hate sleeping alone
The Devil wears a black dress
And covers up the silence
And she lays across the bedspread
The Devil wears a black dress
And covers up the silence
And she lays across the bedspread
Naked as the sunset
She said she had a good dream
She said we had a baby
And she wrapped in a black dress
And she gave it to me
She said, I'll be around 'till the day of deliverance
And I'll be the weight on your bones
And I'll find your children and take to my mistress
'Cause she hates sleeping alone
