Dm*
Get in the car we're late for the gig
C E Am
But don't go too fast it's been snowin' since 10 am
C E Am
We never will be this free again
Dm
Just over the bridge, crossin' the Gatineau
C E Am
To the side that I know where the light becomes strange
C E Am
And we'll never be this free again.
Dm
On our way home singin' the songs that we learned on our mother's knee
C E Am
Four black sheep in need
C E Am
Tryin' or cryin' to be free.
D Dsus4 D Asus4 A Asus4 A
Jesse's been drinkin' again and again he won't believe, he can't believe
Asus4 A Asus4 A G
We can see right through his soul.
Dm
Mom and Dad are on their way, they know these roads
C E Am
They've been travelling a lonely life.
C E Am
Black sheep they too were born in the night.
Dm
And we'll meet at the lodge to suck on life as we look up at the sky
C E Am
that we don't feel the same.
C E Am
And we'll never be this free again.
F#m Esus4 E
May walked away in the snow sayin' she was through.
F#m
And Frere Jacques would never want to ring the bell to tell us all
Esus4 E
We already knew
A* Bm*
That out there in the freezing night we will not be all right
A*
Four black sheep travellin' different speeds
Angry at the world
Losing their way in the cold blue snow.
E7*
Red on black on white - it glowed.
C E Am
We will never feel that free again.
C E Am
We will never feel that free again.
Em*
After the show back on the road to Montreal
D F#m Bm
There were diamonds piercin' our eyes
D E Bm
And the snow pilin' up on either side.
Em
Jesse took the wheel, there was an appeal to stop the ride
D F#m Bm
but we were just four black sheep in the night.
D F#m Bm
Tryin' to hold on for our lives.
Em
We never made it home - spinnin' out on the road
D F#m Bm
We took to the sky where we were finally free for the last time.
D F#m Bm
Flyin' high at the end of our lives.
D F#m Bm
Four black sheep deep in the white light
D F#m Bm
Red on black on white in the night
D F#m Bm
I said red on black on white in the night
D F#m Bm
I said red on black on white in the night
D F#m Bm
Red on black on white in the night
D F#m Bm
Red on black on white in the night
