Night

Open, no capo

Standard tuning


Am    F    G


Am                                 G
Night, you come and cover me, cold coffee spills all over me

     F                          G
It's only hours to the day, you make it look so far away

Am                                    G
Night, you come and sing the songs of birds that have no eyes

   F                        G
Of birds that never fly, of birds that tell me lies

        F              G             Am                G
And the night and I go hand to hand, breast to breast, woman to woman

    F              G              F                         G
The night and I go quietly, we go softly, screaming all the way


Night is watching from the tower, turns on the electric fence
Night can make you disappear without a trace of evidence
Night sounds like a judgement, and nobody speaks on your behalf
You hear yourself calling out loud and hear the night laughing back
The night and I go hand to hand, breast to breast, woman to woman
The night and I go quietly, we go softly, screaming all the way


Am                                 G
Night, you know how I forget, it's only hours to the day

F                              G             Am
So hard to remember that, it's hard to see a night that way
