Black Swan Cifras

[Verse 1]
            Am
There was a black swan outside the palace
                        G
It was appointed by the king
           F
And people took it as a sign that he needed more time
        G                           Am
But you said, "I ain't afraid of no black bird"
 
[Chorus 1]
          Am
Oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh oh oh
                     G
oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
         F
oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
       G          Am
oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
 
[Verse 2]
            Am
There was a rumor of a ghost in the bedroom
                          G
Hanging in and around the bed
           F
But by the time the moon rose, you had taken off your clothes
            G                 Am
And had the pillow under your head
 
[Chorus 1]
Am    G F   G Am
Oh oh oh oh oh oh...
 
[Verse 3]
              Am
There was the face you saw above you
       Am
In the fever of a hot black dream
                                 F
But it was made out of paper and glue
             G                      F
And you were hoping for something a little more realistic
         G                          Am
You were hoping for the head of the queen
 
[Chorus 1]
Am    G F   G Am
Oh oh oh oh oh oh...
 
[Chorus 2]
   Am                                     F
My heart is a kingdom where the king is a heart
            F                 Am
My heart is king. My heart is king.
   Am                                     F
My heart is a kingdom where the king is a heart
            F                 Am
My heart is king. The king of hearts.

[Verse 4]
              E                         F
There was the matador who said he would have you
                                      C
If you could only give it up and walk away
       E                    F
He has carved out an avenue for you
         G             Am
From the palace to the palisades
E                     F
And now it's half-destroyed
                     C
And you are half-destroyed
          E                         F
I see you running down a washed-out road
          G                   Am
I see you running between the dream and the void

My heart is a kingdom
                    C
Where the king is a heart
E           F
My heart is king
G            Am
The king of hearts

[Verse 5]
            Am
There was a rumor of a ghost in the bedroom
        C                 G
Hanging in and around the bed
           F
But by the time the moon rose, you had taken off your clothes
            G                 Am
And had the pillow under your head
           E                     F
You've got mascara all over your bedsheets
                                 C
You've got mascara all over your clothes
           E                             F
You've got mascara making broken-hearted shapes on your face
             G              Am
And you have yet to see the ghost

My heart is king

The king of hearts
