Intro: Am
Am Em7M Am7 Am6 F7M
She was sick and tired of country life.
A little country Amhome, A little country folk,
Made her blood run E7cold.
Now her D7mother pines her heart away,
Looking for her child in the big black Amsmoke,
In the big black Amsmoke.
Am Em7M Am7 Am6 F7M
Frailest, purest girl the world has seen,
According to her AmMa, according to her Pa,
And everybody E7said,
That she D7knew no sin and did no wrong,
Till she walked the streets of the big Amblack smoke,
Of the big black Amsmoke.
Well she E7slept in caffs and coffee bars and bowling alleys,
And every penny she Amhad E7
Was Cspent on purple hearts and cigaE7rettes.
Am Em7M Am7 Am6 F7M
She took all her pretty coloured clothes,
And ran away from Amhome, And the boy next door
For a boy named E7Joe.
And he D7took her money for the rent
And tried to drag her down in the big black Amsmoke,
In the big black Amsmoke.
In the big black Amsmoke.
In the big black Amsmoke.
