Back To Black

Back to Black mirrors Amy Winehouses pain and sorrow from her breakup with Blake Civil-Fielder. Written by Winehouse and produced by Mark Ronson, the song became one of her biggest hits, symbolizing her struggle with her own demons and her return to black, which can be interpreted as her state of depression and substance use.

Introduction:  Dm   Gm   Bb   A  

 Dm                      Gm 
 He left no time to re-gret,
               Bb                           A 
Kept his dick wet, with his same old safe bet.
 Dm                  Gm 
 Me... and my head high,
              Bb                   A 
And my tears dry  get on without my guy.

            Bb                          A 
It' s not e-nough  you love blow and I love puff.
     Dm              Gm 
And life is like a pipe,
                Bb                          A 
And I' m a tiny penny rolling up the walls inside.
