G                   Em
Black Eyed Suzy she works the corner 
    C                     D
out on the block on which she was raised
    G                   Em
and I don't how but she finds some comfort
     C                        D
up amongst the rubble and the Queen Ann's Lace
    C             D             G     G/F#    Em
but nobody seemed to notice her beauty wither away
   C                    D                    G
oh Black Eyed Suzy girl how much more can you take


G                        Em                   
we were lovers back when we were younger but
C           D
we all know how that can go
          G                        Em
it's like one day it's roses and the next it's over and
       C                       D
nobody asks cause ain't nobody wants to know
    C             D                    G    G/F#   Em
as soon as find a place far away from these dirty heat
   C                     D                        G         
oh Black Eyed Suzy she's still losing ground to the heat


C
well now some make it into the wind
                             D          G
they'll take a fly just to forget the pain
C
ah but Suzy she's dug in too deep
C
she knows she's been beat
               D     C          D
but still she stands around and waits
D
ah but


as soon as the seasons change
it will bring the winter wind
Suzy she'll try to fight it
it won't be long
before the cold and rain
and the long November will decide it
what am I to do
ah what am I to say
I just walked from a distance as Suzy withers away
