Dm F
Let's have a black celebration
Gm F C/E
Black Celebration
Dm
Tonight

To celebrate the fact

That we've seen the back
Gm A#
Of another black day
Dm
I look to you

How you carry on

When all hope is gone

Can't you see
Dm
Your optimistic eyes

Seem like paradise

To someone like

Me

I want to take you In my arms

Forgetting all I couldn't do today

Tonight
To celebrate the fact
That we've seen the back
Of another black day
I look to you and your strong belief
Me, I want relief tonight
Consolation, I want so much
Want to feel your touch tonight
Take me in your arms
Forgetting all you couldn't do today
Chorus:
Black celebration
Black celebration
Tonight
Black celebration (I'll drink to that)
Black celebration
Tonight
Black celebration (I'll drink to that)
Black celebration
Tonight
