Lyrics

[Intro]

Em B7 Em B7
Em        Em
  Well my heart knows me better

[Verse 1]
Than I know myself so
I'm going to let it do all the talking
B7 Em
     I came across a place
In the middle of nowhere
With a big black horse
And a cherry tree
B7 Em
     I felt a little fear upon my back
I said don't look back,
just keep on walking
B7 Em
     Well the big black horse said,
"Look this way."
He said, "Hey lil' lady
Will you marry me?"

[Chorus]
B7 Em            Em    D     C
     But I said, No no, no no no no
        Em   D
I said, No no
      C                  Em
You're not the one for me
      D     C
No no, no no no no
        Em
I said, No no,
D C                      Em
  you're not the one for me

[Verse 2]
       Em
And my heart had a problem in the early hours
So I stopped it dead for a beat or two
B7
Em
  But I cut some cord and I shouldn't have done it
And it won't forgive me after all these years
B7
Em
  So I sent her to a place in the middle of nowhere
With a big black horse and a cherry tree
B7
Em
  Now it won't come back cause its oh so happy
And now I've got a hole for the world to see,

[Chorus]
B7 Em             Em    D     C
     And it said, No no, no no no no
        Em   D
I said, No no
      C                  Em
You're not the one for me
      D     C
No no, no no no no
        Em
I said, No no,
D C                      Em
  you're not the one for me

[Bridge]
       Em
I said,  No no, no no no no no
No no
You're not the one for me
No no, no no no no no
No no
You're not the one for me

[Outro]
Em          D                  C
  Big black horse and a cherry tree
Em                 D
  I can't quite get there
         C                   Em
Cause my heart's forsaken me,  yeah, yeah,
yeah
          D    C                 Em
Big black horse and a cherry tree
                 D               C
I can't quite get there cause my heart's
         Em
Forsaken me
