Lady in Black Uriah Heep
She came to me one morning
One lonely sunday morning
Her l[G]ong hair f[Em]lowing
In the m[Am]idwinter wind
I know not how she found me
For in darkness I was walking
And d[G]estruction lay a[Em]round me
From a f[Am]ight I could not win
[Am]Ah [C]ah [G]ah[Am] ..[C].[G] [Am]
[Am]She asked me name my foe then
I said the need within some men
To [G]fight and kill their [Em]brothers
Without [Am]thought of love or god
And I begged her give me horses
To trample down my enemies
So e[G]ager was my p[Em]assion
To d[Am]evour this waste of life
[Am]Ah [C]ah [G]ah[Am] ..[C].[G] [Am]
[Am]But she wouldnt think of battle that
Reduces men to animals
So [G]easy to b[Em]egin
And yet i[Am]mpossible to end
For shes the mother of our men
Who counselled me so wisely then
I f[G]eared to walk [Em]alone again
And a[Am]sked if she would stay
[Am]Ah [C]ah [G]ah[Am] ..[C].[G] [Am]
[Am]Oh lady lend your hand outright
And let me rest here at your side
Have f[G]aith and trust
I[Em]n peace she said
And [Am]filled my heart with life
There is no strength in numbers
Have no such misconception
But [G]when you need me
B[Em]e assured I [Am]wont be far away
[Am]Ah [C]ah [G]ah[Am] ..[C].[G] [Am]
[Am]Thus having spoke she turned away
And though I found no words to say
I s[G]tood and watched u[Em]ntil I saw
H[Am]er black coat disappear
My labour is no easier
But now I know Im not alone
I [G]find new heart each [Em]time
I think [Am]upon that windy day
And if one day she comes to you
Drink deeply from her words so wise
[G]Take courage from her
[Em]As your prize
And [Am]say hello from me
[Am]Ah [C]ah [G]ah[Am] ..[C].[G] [Am]
