I paint my nails black,
         Ebm                     B 
I dye my hair a darker shade of brown,
                     Gb
'Cause you like your women,
               Db
Spanish, dark, strong and proud.

So it'd suit the mood of your soul.

My wedding dress black leather too.

You have no room for light,
        Db            
Love is lost on you.


          Gb
I keep my lips red,
             Ebm              B
To seem like cherries in the spring.
             Gb
Darling, you can't let everything,
     Db
Seem so dark blue.


B             Ebm
