KT Tunstall
Black Horse And The Cherry Tree
Eye To The Telescope (2004)

- 2, 3, 4

Em    B7  Em  x 2  w/ (woo ooh)

Well my heart knows me better than I know myself
So I'm gonna let it do all the talking

I came across a place in the middle of nowhere
With a big black horse and a cherry tree

I felt a little fear upon my back
He said "Don't look back, just keep on walking"

When the big black horse said, "Look this way"
He said, "Hey, lady, will you marry me?"

             Em  D
  But I said no, no
  B7  C
  No, no no no                         x 2
         Em  D
  I said no, no
  C7                     Em            (fin: ! sur C7)
  You're not the one for me

e / e e  d (e)  x 2  w/ (woo ooh)

And my heart hit a problem, in the early hours
So I stopped it dead for a beat or two

But I cut some cord, and I shouldn't have done it
And it won't forgive me after all these years

So I sent it to a place in the middle of nowhere
With a big black horse and a cherry tree

Now it won't come back, 'cause it's oh so happy            w/ ti funky
And now I've got a hole for the world to see

  Refrain

e / e e  d (e)  x 4

Said no no no, no
No no, no                              x 2  (creux)
No, no
You're not the one for me

  Big black horse
  And a cherry tree                    x 2  w/ (na na na)
  I can't quite get there
  Cause my heart's forsaken me         (fin: !)
