Well my heart knows me better than I know myself

I came across a place in the middle of nowhere
With a big black horse and a cherry tree.
Em B7 Em
N/C
I felt a little fear upon my back
He said "Don't look back, just keep on walking.
Em B7 Em
N/C
When the big black horse said, "Hey lady!" {When the big black horse said, "Look this way"}
Said, "Look this way, will you marry me?" {Said, "Hey, lady, will you marry me?"}

N/C (muted brisk strumming throughout singing)
And my heart hit a problem, in the early hours,
N/C
So I stopped it dead for a beat or two.

N/C
But I cut some cord, and I shouldn't have done it,
Em B7 Em
N/C
And it won't forgive me after all these years
Em B7 Em
N/C
So I sent it to a place in the middle of nowhere
With a big black horse and a cherry tree.

Now it won't come back, 'cause it's oh so happy
And now I've got a hole for the world to see
Em B7 Em
