F#7(no3rd)
Deep down in Mississippi
I found my sweet delta blues.
She weaved a little southernly,
Made a little voodoo.
          E
She was born the bright side of midnight
When her mama was seventeen.
She was a hot blooded, God fearin' gospel girl,
The finest that I'd ever seen.
Oh.

Bridge:
C#                  D    
She's black coffee. Little bit o' cream;
A                           E   
Sweet brown sugar, my midnight dream.

E|---1--1--5--4--1---|


Chorus:
        F#7(no3rd)
Black Pearl,
Yeah, my kinda girl.
Just the kind of thing to rock my world.
Black Pearl,
She's my kinda girl.


Verse 2 (same as verse 1):

Met her in a dixie diner,
Put on the southern hospitality.
I can still smell her sweet molasses
Running all over me.
We started rollin' like a river,
Like a twister tearin' through the town.
We we're tongue-tied, satisfied, southern fried.
As she drove this ol' dixie down.


Bridge (same as before)


Middle 8:

B
  Yeah, she's alright. Yeah, she's okay.
C#
   Well, makin' love all night. 
                 D   
Yeah, really made my day.


Verse 3 & Bridge:(same as before)(intrumental)


Chorus: (repeat 3 times and fade)
