Verse 1:
     F#5
Deep down in Mississippi
I found my sweet delta blue
She weaved a little southern spell on me
Made a little voodoo

Verse 2 (same chords as in verse 1):
F#5
Met her in a Dixie diner
Put on the southern hospitality
I can still smell her sweet molasses
Running all over me
   E5
We started rollin' like a river
Like a twister tearin' through the town
         B5
We we're tongue-tied, satisfied, southern fried
As she drove this ol' Dixie down

Repeat chorus:
    C#5                D5
She's black coffee. Little bit o' cream
  A5                    E5
Sweet brown sugar, my midnight dream
F#5 – F#5 – A5 – Ab5 – F#5
      F#5
Black Pearl - mmm, my kinda girl
Just the kind of thing to rock my world
Black Pearl – she’s my kinda girl

Middle 8:
B5
   Yeah, she's alright. Yeah, she's okay
C#5
   Well, makin' love all night
                D5
   Yeah, really made my day

Sweet brown sugar, my midnight dream

Just the kind of thing to rock my world
Black Pearl – ooh, my kinda girl

Black Pearl - ooh, my kinda girl
Just the kind of thing to rock my world
