The Beatles at SHEA STADIUMコミュの'Baby's In Black'

本国英国では1964年12月4日の発売。LP'For Sale'に収録。

さすがLennon/McCartneyです。A・E・D・F#m・B7の5個のｺｰﾄﾞの素晴らしい曲です。
色の形容詞の前にinが付くと「～色の洋服を着た」と訳す、と教わった事を思い出します。「あの娘は黒のﾄﾞﾚｽだぜ、滅入っちゃうぜ、俺がこんなに好きなのに、あいつは戻って来ないのに」とでも訳すんでしょうね。

ﾗｲﾌﾞではなかなか盛り上げづらい曲なので、ﾜﾙﾂにのせて体の中で三連符を刻むと唄い易いと思います。F#mのｻﾋﾞは盛り上げて･･･。

Baby's In Black
(John Lennon/Paul McCartney)

Oh Dear,What Can I Do
Baby's In Black And I'm Feeling Blue
Tell Me Oh,What Can I Do

She Thinks Of Him
And So She Dresses In Black
And Though He'll Never Come Back
She's Dressed In Black

Oh Dear,What Can I Do
Baby's In Black And I'm Feeling Blue
Tell Me Oh,What Can I Do

I Think Of Her
But She Thinks Only Of Him
And Though It's Only A Whim
She Thinks Of Him

Oh,How Long Will It Take
Till She Sees Her Mistake She Has Made
Dear,What Can I Do
Baby's In Black And I'm Feeling Blue
Tell Me Oh,What Can I Do

Oh,How Long Will It Take
Till She Sees Her Mistake She Has Made
Dear,What Can I Do
Baby's In Black And I'm Feeling Blue
Tell Me Oh,What Can I Do

She Thinks Of Him
And So She Dresses In Black
And Though He'll Never Come Back
She's Dressed In Black

Oh Dear,What Can I Do
Baby's In Black And I'm Feeling Blue
Tell Me Oh,What Can I Do
