[Verse 1]
The Gmfortune queen of New Orleans
Was Gbrushing her cat in her Cmblack limou-Dsine
GmOn the back seat were scratches
From the Gmarks of men her Cmfortune she had Bbwon D
GmCouldn't see through the tinted glass
She Gsaid, "Home James" Cmhe hit the Dgas
I Gmfollowed her to some darkened room
She Gtook my money, she said, "CmI'll be with you Bbsoon"D
[Chorus]
GmDark lady laughed and danced
And lit the Dcandles one by D7one
DDanced to her gypsy music
Till her Cmbrew was Gmdone D7
GmDark lady played black magic
Till the Dclock struck on the D7twelve
DShe told me more about me
Than I Cmknew Gmmyself D7
[Verse 2]
GmShe dealt two cards, a queen and a three
And mumbled some Gwords
That were Cmso strange to Dme
GmThen she turned up a two-eyed jack
My Geyes saw red but the Cmcard
Still stayed BbblackD
GmShe said the man you love is secretly true
To sGomeone else who is Cmvery close to Dyou
GmMy advice is that you leave this place
Never Gcome back and Cmforget you ever saw my Bbface D
[Chorus]
GmDark lady laughed and danced
And lit the Dcandles one by D7one
DDanced to her gypsy music
Till her Cmbrew was Gmdone D7
GmDark lady played black magic
Till the Dclock struck on the D7twelve
DShe told me more about me
Than I Cmknew Gmmyself D7
[Verse 3]
GmSo I ran home and crawled in my bed
I Gcouldn't sleep because of Cmall the things she Dsaid
GmThen I remembered her strange perfume
And how GI smelled it once in Cmmy own Bbroom D
GmSo I sneaked back and caught her with my man
GLaughing and kissing till they Cmsaw the gun in my Dhand
GmThe next thing I knew they were dead on the floor
Dark Glady would never turn a Cmcard up anyBbmore D
[Chorus]
GmDark lady laughed and danced
And lit the Dcandles one by D7one
DDanced to her gypsy music
Till her Cmbrew was Gmdone D7
GmDark lady played black magic
Till the Dclock struck on the D7twelve
DShe told me more about me
Than I Cmknew GmmyselD7
