----------------------------------------[Verse 1]
[Main Riff]
Cold wind blow this waiting blood,
Flow into my ashen arms.
Ice stream prick my sleeping skin.
She is like the so black time,
Race on in and never go away.
She's just like this wind.
__________G______________Em____________
Oh black car, with your creaking wheel,
____G_____________________________G/G#/A
Take away these thoughts of mine.
[Main Riff]
----------------------------------------[Verse 2]
[Main Riff]
Once there was a crazy man
Staring from his drunken eyes,
Staring stony into her elbow's way
Stared at me and tellin' me,
'Stead of 'oh, poor lonely me,
I claw the bed and I claw my hair.
__________G______________Em____________
Oh black car, with your creaking wheel,
____G_____________________________G/G#/A
Take away these thoughts of mine.
_Bm______________________________
Pictures sing in rhythm with 'em.
_C#m______________________D__________
Dig the holes for me to sleep inside.
-----------------------------------------[Chorus]
__Bm________
She is free,
__F#m______________________
Shattered crossing the sky,
__Bm____________________[see: Main Riff (part 2)]
Free from hope and this misery.
__Bm________________F#m____________________
She's beautiful, so beautiful away from me.
__E_________
She is free.
__A_________
She is free.
----------------------------------------[Verse 3]
Instead of me is this creaking wheel,
Take away these thoughts of mine.
Pictures sing in rhythm with 'em.
Dig the holes for me to sleep inside.
Oh black car, with your creaking wheel,
Take away these thoughts of mine.
Pictures sing in rhythm with 'em.
Dig four holes for me to sleep inside.
-----------------------------------------[Chorus]
__Bm________
She is free.
Shadow crossing the sky.
Free from hope and this misery.
So beautiful away from me.
She is free
She is free
