Black Pearl

Intro: F#m7 
 
 
Verse 1: 
 
F#m7(no 3d) 
Deep down in Mississippi 
I found my sweet delta blues. 
She weaved a little southernly, 
Made a little voodoo. 
E 
She was born the bright side of midnight 
When her mama was seventeen. 
F#m7 
She was a hot blooded, God fearin‘ gospel girl, 
The finest that I‘d ever seen. 
Oh. 
 
Bridge: 
 
C# D 
She‘s black coffee. Little bit o‘ cream; 
A E 
Sweet brown sugar, my midnight dream. 
 
F#5 - F#5 - A5 - Ab5 - F#5 
 
 
Chorus: 
 
F#7(no3rd) 
Black Pearl, 
Yeah, my kinda girl. 
Just the kind of thing to rock my world. 
Black Pearl, 
She‘s my kinda girl. 
 
 
Verse 2 (same as verse 1): 
 
Met her in a dixie diner, 
Put on the southern hospitality. 
I can still smell her sweet molasses 
Running all over me. 
We started rollin‘ like a river, 
Like a twister tearin‘ through the town. 
We we‘re tongue-tied, satisfied, southern fried. 
As she drove this ol‘ dixie down. 
 
 
Bridge and chorus:(same as before) 
 
 
Middle 8: 
 
B 
Yeah, she‘s alright. Yeah, she‘s okay. 
C# 
Well, makin‘ love all night. 
D 
Yeah, really made my day. 
 
 
solo: same as verse 
 
 
ending: 
 
E 
She was born the bright side of midnight 
When her mama was seventeen. 
F#m7 
She was a hot blooded, God fearin‘ gospel girl, 
The finest that I‘d ever seen. 
 
 
Bridge: 
 
C# D 
She‘s black coffee. Little bit o‘ cream; 
A E 
Sweet brown sugar, my midnight dream.
