Ill Be The Night

G

G    Em      C
When I was a child
C        Em    G          D
I made a deal against the sun
G    Em         C
That if it died out
C    Em     G      D
That I would carry on

           D                D
So you can feel and you can see
              D
That it's all real
        Am            C
And you won't have to cry

G    Em     C
I'll be the night
         Em      G       D
Let your systems all transpire
         G      Em   C
Let them soak up the light
     Em        G      D
Then dash them on the fire

           D              D
And in the flames of your streets
                 D                D
Children will be laughing at your feet
    Am        C
And I will be gone

       G        Em    C
No one owes you any favours
       Em G       D
They only owe you wine
      G         Em         C
And a fruitless search for saviours
           Em G      D
Will leave nothing inside
    G       Em     C
I'm married to the sky
      Em      G      D
I'm a servant of the hour
    G  Em   C
I'm open as time
        Em      G       D
And I'm perfect without power

    G      Em         C
And I will carry your death
           Em         G     D
And I will speak your final words
       G         Em    C
I will draw your final breath
Em         G       D
So that it will be heard

          D             D                D
Above the sound of your empires tumbling down
             D                D
Until you're memorised by the ground
       Am                C
In the bitterness of the end

     G           Em    C
Oh I pray you're never lonely
         Em        G      D
And that leads you all to love
  G           Em    C
I pray you're never empty
           Em     G    D
But cannot fathom the Above
  G       Em    C
I pray for your children
           Em       G     D
That their wishes be understood
         G       Em       C
By their masters and their minds
            Em    G       D
And are not buried in the flood

           D
Of others' dreams
            D
And others' schemes
            D
And others' teams
             Am       C
Which should be left alone
     G    Em     C
Then I'll be the night
G    Em     C
I'll be the night
G    Em     C
I'll be the night
G    Em     C
I'll be the night
