The dogs are

howling at the

midnight

moon.

I’m on my

black rose

blooms.

C 

C 

The mountain’s  

Em/B 

high, the  

Am 

night is  

G/B 

cold.

C 

I feel the  

G/B 

sunshine; a  

D/A 

black rose  

G 

grows.

 

To

G 

gether again, we’re as  

C 

common as sin, they say,

 

 

D 

We just walk around the stones they  

G 

throw.

 

 

G 

Night after night,  

C 

we steal away to where

 

 

F 

Love don’t see no  

C 

colors in the  

G 

shadows,

 

 

F 

Love don’t see no  

C 

colors in the  

G 

shadows.

 

G 

Wind in the  

C 

willows, 

 

 

G 

wild and  

C 

warm, 

 

 

G 

 

C 

 

G 

 

C 

G 

Just like the  

C 

woman lying  

G 

here in my  

C 

arms. 

 

 

G 

 

C 

 

G 

 

C 

C 

The water’s  

Em/B 

deep, 

 

 

Am 

cold and  

G/B 

still.

C 

I love the  

G/B 

feeling that  

D/A 

black rose  

G 

gives.

 

F 

Love don’t see no  

C 

colors in the  

G 

shadows.
