Am G 2x
Verse 1
Am G Well, you wonder why I always dress in black Am G Why you never see bright colors on my back Am G And why does my appearance seem to have a sombre tone Am G Well, there's a reason for the things that I have on
Verse 2
Am G I wear the black for the poor and the beaten down Am G Living in the hopeless hungry side of town Am G I wear it for the prisoner who has long paid for his crime Am G But is there because he's a victim of the times
Verse 3
Am G I wear the black for those who've never read Am G Or listened to the words that Jesus said Am G About the road to happiness through love and charity Am G Why, you'd think He's talking straight to you and me
Verse 4
F Am Well, we're doing mighty fine I do suppose Am G In our streak of lightning cars and fancy clothes F Am But just so we're reminded of the ones who are held back G Am Up front there ought to be a man in black
Verse 5
Am G I wear it for the sick and lonely old Am G For the reckless ones whose bad trip left them cold Am G I wear the black in mourning for the lives that could have been Am G Each week we lose a hundred fine young men
Verse 6
Am G And I wear it for the thousands who have died Am G Believing that the Lord was on their side Am G I wear it for another hundred thousand who have died Am G Believing that we all were on their side
Verse 7
Am G Well, there's things that never will be right I know Am G And things need changing everywhere you go Am G But till we start to make a move to make a few things right Am G You'll never see me wear a suit of white
Verse 8
Am G Oh, I'd love to wear a rainbow every day Am G And tell the world that everything's o-kay Am G But I'll try to carry off a little darkness on my back Am G Am Till things are brighter, I'm the man in black
