Black Cat Intro - Janet Jackson
Rhythm Nation
It’s a song I have always wanted to play.  I wanted a little more detail.
I am giving credit to Jason Read for his tutorial on youtube.  He has a decent "how to" video on Black Cat.
Get your FUNK going!

E
All the lonely nights I spend alone
E
Never around to love me
E
You're always gone
E
Cause you're hangin out
E
Breakin' the rules
E
Oh the man has come
E
Looking for you
E
You're a rebel now, Don't give a damn,
E
Always carrying on, With the gang
E
I'm trying to tell you boy, It's a mistake,
E
You won't realize, Til it's too late
B
Don't understand , Why you insist,
           A
On ways of living such a dangerous life
B
Time after time you stay away
 

            A
And I just know that you're telling me lies

[Intro Riff Over the Chorus]
E
Black cat,  Nine lives,   Short days,  Long Nights, Livin on the edge, Not afraid to die
E
Heart beat,  Real strong, But not for long, Better watch your step or you’re gonna die
 
E
You're so together boy, But just at a glance
E
You'll do anything, If given a chance
E
Scheming, plannin lies, To get what you need
E
So full of promises, That you never keep
 
E
Don't you tell yourself, That it's okay
E
Sick and tired of, All of your games
E
And you want me to stay, Better change
E
Makes no sense to me, Your crazy ways
 
[Bridge Riff to the Intro]
 
B                                             A
Don't understand , Why you insist,
           A
On ways of living such a dangerous life
B
Time after time you stay away
 

            A
And I just know that you're telling me lies
 
[Solo]
E
Good luck with that!  I’ll post something in a couple years when I can play it!
 
 
[Intro Riff Over Chorus]
E
Black cat, Nine lives, Short days, Long nights

Better watch your step, Or you're gonna die
