one of my favorite songs to play by... the Builders and the Butchers "BLACK DRESSES" A Little sister, there's blood on the tracks, D And a lit cigarette but you're not comin' back, C E A To a town that was built on black gold and iron ore. A And the kettle got hot, and it boiled and it steamed, D And you can't run away from the worst of your dreams, C E A They'll string you up when you're tryin' to fall fast asleep. A She wore black dresses (black dresses) D And she never cried in the morning. C She's got a bottle in paper E A So she can forget her name. A She wore black dresses (black dresses) D And she never smiled in the morning. C She's got a bottle in paper E A So she can forget her name. A Well her home town was built by a few greedy men, D And people tell me she was descended from them. C E A She's been playin' in the darkness ever since she was a kid. A And she doesn't mourn for her man's come and gone, D She's worn the color of black all along, C E A And she was born with a stone where there shoulda been a heart. A She wore black dresses (black dresses) D And she never cried in the morning. C She's got a bottle in paper E A So she can forget her name. A She wore black dresses (black dresses) D And she never smiled in the morning. C She's got a bottle in paper E A So she can forget her name. D A E A Did you ever meet a girl who was born the victim of a name? D A E A I know, 'cuz I'm a boy who was born the victim of a name.
