Amongst the tall -grown sugarcane
D 
Gm 
C 
Lived a simple man and a Dominica hen
D 
G 
And they rolled up a different name
C 
Well, the first time I felt lightning
G 
I was standing in a drizzling rain
D 
G 
Gm 
With a trembling hand
G 
C 
and a bottle of gin
D 
G 
And it rose up a different name
C 
Yes, the devil made me do it the first time
G 
D 
The second time I put it on my own
G 
Lord, put a hand on the
C 
simple -headed man
D 
Don't you leave that black rose
G

alone
G 
Gm 
C 
When the devil made that woman
G 
D 
Lord, he threw the pattern away
Gm 
She was built for speed
C 
With the tools you need
D 
To make a new fool every day
G 
Gm 
G 
Now way down deep and dirty
C 
G 
D 
On the darkest side of shame
G 
Gm 
You'll find the cane -cutting man
C 
He's doing it again
D 
G 
With that rose of a different name
Well, yes, the devil made
C 
me do it the first time
G 
D 
But sometime I've done it on my own
G 
Lord, put a handle on this
C 
circle -headed man
D 
G 
Help me leave that black rose alone
But yes, the devil made
C 
me do it the first time
G 
D 
The second time, I'll do it on my own
G 
Lord, put a hammer on that
C 
simple -headed man

Help me leave that black rose alone
