Night Must Fall

E     A                 F#m
Never thought we'd ever end
E         A                 F#m
I can't afford to lose more friends
E      A                 F#m
Not to have you close at hand
E      A                F#m
Wasn't quite what I had planned
           E
(It's that time)
           A
Is it that time?
  F#m              A
A moment that will pass
                E
(Yes, it's that time)
           A
Is it that time?
   F#m              A
We knew it couldn't last
E        A                 F#m
I'm just trying to catch my breath
E            A              F#m
A heart that beats itself to death
E      A             F#m
Panic stricken by the thought
E          A          F#m
You're not here for my support
              E
(But its that time)
           A
Is it that time?
  F#m            A
A curtain has to fall
                E
(Yes, it's that time)
           A
Is it that time?
    F#m              A
The writing's on the wall
                E
(You're in your prime)
               A
You're in your prime now, darling
F#m                     A
And that's the worst of all
               E    A  F#m  B7(9)  B7
It's just that time
( F#m  B7(9)  B7 )
Night must fall
I'm so lonely
I'm so sorry
E      A         F#m
Can we ever justify
E       A               F#m
Letting sleeping hatred lie?
E      A                B7(9)  B7
In the trenches hand-to-hand
E      A            F#m
Is the measure of a man
Am I a man?
           E
(It's that time)
           A
Is it that time?
    F#m               A
The light has almost gone
                E
(Yes, it's that time)
           A
Is it that time?
    F#m            A
The carnival moves on
               E
You're in your prime
                A
(You're in your prime now, darling)
F#m                  A
And you did nothing wrong
               E    A  F#m  B7(9)  B7
It's just that time
( F#m  B7(9)  B7 )
Night has come
