Black Is The Color by Joan Baez
Black Is The Color
Capo:no capo
Black, black, black is the color of my true loves hair.
His lips are something wond´rous fair,
The purest eyes and the bravest hands.
I love the ground whereon he stands.
Black, black, black is the color of my true loves hair
I love my love and well he knows,
I love the ground whereon he goes
And if my love no more I see,
My life would quickly fade away.
Black, black, black ist the color of my true loves hair.
Tabs: Em, D, Am

J.B plays this in Em but in some performances with the guitar
tuned down one semitone. This tab is based on the version on the
Joan Baez in Concert album
The occasional ornamentation on Em and Am chords is by addition of F#,
as below:
Em Em+F# Am Am+F# D
