Intro: Em
Em Em7M Em7 Em6 C7M
She was sick and tired of country life.
A little country Emhome, A little country folk,
Made her blood run B7cold.
Now her A7mother pines her heart away,
Looking for her child in the big black Emsmoke,
In the big black Emsmoke.
Em Em7M Em7 Em6 C7M
Frailest, purest girl the world has seen,
According to her EmMa, according to her Pa,
And everybody B7said,
That she A7knew no sin and did no wrong,
Till she walked the streets of the big Emblack smoke,
Of the big black Emsmoke.
Well she B7slept in caffs and coffee bars and bowling alleys,
And every penny she Emhad B7
Was Gspent on purple hearts and cigaB7rettes.
Em Em7M Em7 Em6 C7M
She took all her pretty coloured clothes,
And ran away from Emhome, And the boy next door
For a boy named B7Joe.
And he A7took her money for the rent
And tried to drag her down in the big black Emsmoke,
In the big black Emsmoke.
In the big black Emsmoke.
In the big black Emsmoke.
