Tuning: Standard (E A D G B E)

Intro:
Em C Bm
       x2
Em A G

Verse:
Em
She's black and red and built just like a spy plane
Em
Extracting information from my mind
D                   C
The photograph she takes into her mainframe
Em                    D
For your eyes only lonely cold war time (of mine)

Pre-Chorus:
D
Now after all the city falls just like the night or an angel does

Chorus:
G
Leave me here alone to collect my things
C                   Em
She sees music in the terror she brings
      D      C
And like a technicolor dream
       Em        D
The light in your eyes blinded me
D
From the perch she softly smiled
          Em
My blackbird softly smiled


Em C Bm
       x2
Em A G

Verse:
Em
She's built for speed and made for keeping secrets
Em
Stalking dark and in these skies
D                  C
From miles above no other ones can detect her
Em                 D
My blackbird blows a kiss that ends mankind

Pre-Chorus:
D
And all this time there is no crime of treason that she hasn't seen

Chorus:
G
Leave me here alone to collect my things
C                   Em
She sees music in the terror she brings
      D      C
And like a technicolor dream
       Em        D
The light in your eyes blinded me
D
From the perch she softly smiled
          Em
My blackbird softly smiled
