Johanna Warren - Black Moss Tabs/Chords/Lyrics

This is a fine example of a complex song made easier with alternate tuning. Tune your guitar to DADEAD and throw the capo on 2. See the tabs at the end of the post. I transcribed the song from the following video.



Black Moss Chords/Lyrics

Badd2                              EMaj7
Fear is the weight we carry
from the cradle straight to our graves,
and love is the treasure we bury;
pain alternates with pleasure in beautiful waves

and you've been watching me—
you say I emanate some strange magnetic power,
but don't be drawn to me;
I may be here today, but soon black moss will cover

EMaj9                 Badd2
over my dead body. (3x)

You've been a lot of places—
left me forgotten by your side—
and maybe the feeling's baseless,
but something still stirs in me when I look in your eyes,

'cause you've been kind to me;
I never quite believed you when you said it's over.
Well what is wrong with me?
I trusted you—you watched me open like a flower

over my dead body. (3x)
