F#        C#          B         C#         F#
I fell in love with a beautiful boy on the black sand
   F#       C#         B         F#          C#
He took me away, I was never the same on the black sand
         B           C#       F#     E    D
He said "who's gonna love you buried underground?"
E           F#
Ooh, on the black sand


[Verse 2]
  F#       C#         B             C#           F#
A mother unwed with a scar down her chest on the black sand
F#          C#           B        F#           C#
She met her mate on that old army base back in Thailand
B           C#            F#         E       D
Who's gonna love him when all that's lost is found?
 E          F#
Ooh, on the black sand


[Chorus]
       D
On the black sand
       E
On the black sand
       F#
On the black sand
       D
On the black sand
       E
On the black sand
       F#
On the black sand


[Verse 3]
F#          C#              B          C#           F#
I have this dream where I'm down on my knees on the black sand
    F#         C#         B           F#         C#
I'm facing the sea as the wind pushes me down to my hands
B           C#   F#       E      D
Who's gonna mind when the end is nigh?
  E          F#
O-oh, on the black sand


[Chorus]
       D
On the black sand
       E
On the black sand
    F#
The black sand
       D
On the black sand
    E
The black sand
F#
Black sand

On the black sand
