[Verse 1]
A# Dm Gm
Night was dark, your skin was dark
C D#
your eyes were shining bright
G# Gm D# F D#
Oh, black beauty, close in my heart
A# Dm Gm C D#
I was King Solomon who held his Queen of Sheba tight
G# Gm C
Oh, black beauty held in my arms
[Bridge]
Gm D# C A
How we were told love was not meant for us
D G
Two different worlds stepped apart
C F
Heart against heart
[Verse 2]
A# Dm Gm C D#
But we knew where to find an opportunity
G# Gm D# F D#
Far away where no one was near
A# Dm Gm C D#
We could meet there at night and with impunity
G# Gm C
Oh, black beauty, love without fear
[Bridge]
D# C D# F G
Our love was wonderful, so young and so pure
D# C
I held your trembling hand
F D
I was so sure
Gm D/F# F C
Then when our lips met there was no returning
D# A# F
The fire was burning in our hearts
