[Verse 1]
      A6         Am
In my eyes, indisposed
      G6            B9sus4
In disguises no one knows
           F              E    E7
Hides the face, lies the snake
        A6     A7    Bb
and the sun in my disgrace
        A6           Am
Boiling heat, summer stench
           G6                  B9sus4
'Neath the black the sky looks dead
        F                E     E7
Call my name through the cream
         A6        A7      Bb
and I'll hear you, scream again
 
[Chorus]
           F              E7
Black hole sun, won't you come
    A    A7       Cadd9
and wash away the rain
           F              E7
Black hole sun, won't you come
          D
Won't you come
          E
Won't you come
 
[Verse 2]
      A6             Am
Stuttering, cold and damp
          G6              B9sus4
Steal the warm wind tired friend
          F               E  E7
Times are gone for honest men
           A6      A7       Bb
Sometimes far too long for snakes
      A6            Am
In my shoes walking sleep
      G6               B9sus4
In my youth I pray to keep
       F         E    E7
Heaven send hell away
       A6         A7     Bb
No one sings like you anymore
 
[Chorus]
           F              E7
Black hole sun, won't you come
    A    A7       Cadd9
and wash away the rain
           F              E7
Black hole sun, won't you come
          D     E
Won't you come
            F              E7
Black hole sun, won't you come
    A    A7       Cadd9
and wash away the rain
           F              E7
Black hole sun, won't you come
          D                 C               E
Won't you come (Black hole sun, black hole sun) (x4)
 
[Solo]
D5 D5/C# B5 D5 A5 G#5 G5* (x6)
G5* A5
 
        A6             Am
Hang my head, drown my fear
         G6           B9sus4
Till you all just disappear
 
[Chorus]
           F              E7
Black hole sun, won't you come
    A    A7       Cadd9
and wash away the rain
           F              E7
Black hole sun, won't you come
          D     E
Won't you come
            F              E7
Black hole sun, won't you come
    A    A7       Cadd9
and wash away the rain
           F              E7
Black hole sun, won't you come
          D                 C               E
Won't you come (Black hole sun, black hole sun) (x8)

The song is actually tuned as a drop D tuning. I am trying to figure out the actual chord names. Some of the tabs here on this site are correct I just haven't found one that lists the chord names with the tab.

this is a great arrangement love it. fun fact - the a6 -am -g6 -b9sus4 - is also a key component of red hot chili peppers under the bridge (although i think in UTB the b9sus4 is actually an A but its close enough)( - learned it by accident strumming the wrong pattern for this song
