Verse 1
G
Em
G
D
Well,
C
D
G
Have I spent in that neat little town.
A sad misfortune came over me,
C
D
G
Betrayed by the black velvet band
Her eyes they shone like diamonds
G
Em
And her hair was hung over her shoulder
C
D
G
Tied up with a black velvet band
I took a stroll down Broadway,
C
D
G
come a -trapsing along the highway
She was both fair and handsome,
G
Em
And her hair hung over her shoulder,
C
D
G
tied up with a black velvet band
Her eyes they shone like diamonds,
G
Em
And her hair was hung over her shoulder,
C
D
G
tied up with a black velvet band
I took a stroll with this pretty fair maid,
G
Em
Well I knew she meant the doing of him,
C
D
G
by the look in her roguish black eye
A gold watch she took from his pocket,
G
D
Em
And the very first thing that I said was,
C
D
G
Access to the black velvet band.
Her eyes they shone like diamonds,
G
Em
And her hair was hung over her shoulder,
C
D
G
Tied up with a black velvet band
Before the judge and the jury
G
Em
The judge, says to me
C
D
G
Young man, your case, it is proven clear
We'll give you seven years penal servitude
C
D
G
Betrayed by the black velvet band
Her eyes they shone like diamonds
G
D
Em
And her hair it hung over her shoulder
C
D
G
Tied up with a black velvet band
So come on you jolly old fellows
G
Em
When you are out on the town, lads
C
D
G
Beware of the pretty Colleens
They'll feed you with malt drink, me lads
C
D
G
You've landed in Vandy Man's land
Her eyes they shone like diamonds
G
Em
And her hair is hung over her shoulder
C
D
G
Tied up with a black velvet band
Her eyes they shone like diamonds
G
Em
And her hair it took over her shoulder
C
D
G
Tied up with a black velvet band
How did you like the song?
