          B
Well, you wonder why I always dress in black.
       B                             C#
Why you never see bright colors on my back, and
E            B                  E              B
Why does my appearance, seem to have a sombre tone,
               C#                                 F#7
Well, thereʼs a reason for the things that I have on.

          B
I wear the black for the poor and the beaten down,
B                                      C#
Livinʼ in the hopeless, hungry side of town.
  E                 B               E                   B
I wear it for the prisoner, who has long paid for his crime.
      C#                                   F#7
But is there because heʼs a victim of the times.

  B
I wear the black for those, whoʼve never read,
  B                                 C#
Or listened to the words, that Jesus said,
 E                       B          E           B
About the road to happiness, through love and charity,
           B                                     F#7
Why, youʼd think heʼs talking straight to you and me.

           B
Well, weʼre doinʼ mighty fine, I do suppose,
       B                                  C#
In our streak-of-lightninʼ cars and fancy clothes,
    E               B
But just so weʼre reminded, of,
     E                  B
The ones who are held back,

  B                               F#7
Up front there oughta be a man in black.

  B
I wear it for the sick and lonely old,
       B                                       C#
For the reckless ones, whose bad trip left them cold,
  E                     B
I wear the black in mourninʼ,
        E                       B
For the lives that could have been,
    B                                  F#7
Each week we lose a hundred fine young men. And

  B
I wear it for the thousands who have died,
  B                                 C#
Believinʼ that the Lord was on their side,
  E                      B    E
I wear it for another hundred thousand
           B
Who have died,
 B                                  F#7
Believinʼ that we all were on their side.

             B
Well, thereʼs things that never
B
Will be right, I know, and
B                                   C#
Things need changinʼ evʼrywhere you go,
    E                        B
But ʼtil we start to make a move,
    E                 B
To make a few things right,
       B                             F#7
Youʼll never see me wear a suit of white.

       B
Aw! Iʼd love to wear a rainbow every day, and
                                C#
Tell the world that evʼrythingʼs OK,
        E              B           E              B
But Iʼll try to carry off a little darkness on my back,
     B                      F#7           B
ʼTil things are brighter, Iʼm the man in black.
