We Shall Wear Midnight

(início)

G           D     F#m     D
You made me older than my years
     G     A          D
I am young and barely grown
G          D      F#m      D
And when I cry, I cry your tears
      G       A          D
for I have no life of my own.
A             D            G      D
Why don't you write me some candlelight
G             D        A
and wear your heart of gold?
A          D          G                     A
and I will wear these Aching, heartbreaking years
A         D   G            A       D
'Til one day I shall wear midnight.
G                 D                F#m     D
And if you should scream from your darkest dream
     G       A              D
In a whisper you'll hear me call
G          D            F#m   D
And for a while I'll be sweet sixteen
         G       A        D
and I'll have no power at all.
A             D          G         D
Why don't you write me a moonlight night
G             D      A
and wear your finest hour
A          D          G                     A
and I will wear these Aching, heartbreaking years
A         D   G            A       D
'Til one day I shall wear midnight.
D    G              A
I am young, you are old,
A                            D
but you're not heartless and cold
D    G             A                D
I am warm from the love that you've shown
D       G          D
but you conjured me up
D         A           D
from your hat full of dreams
D       G            A             D
and you keep me in a world of your own
A             D          G       D
Why don't you write me a guiding light
G             D      A
and wear your heart's desire?
A          D          G                     A
and I will wear these Aching, heartbreaking years
A         D   G            A       D
'Til one day I shall wear midnight.
G                 D           F#m   D
And when you lay down on your final word,
        G      A         D
it will be no comfort to me.
G                   D            F#m        D
I have lived by the pen and I’ll die by the sword,
          G       A      D
when it’s time to set me free.
A             D          G       D
Why don’t you write me a gallant knight
G             D          A
and wear your honour and sword
A          D          G                     A
and I will wear these Aching, heartbreaking years
A         D   G            A       D
'Til one day I shall wear midnight.
A   D   G            A       D
One day I shall wear midnight
A         D   G            A       D
'Til one day we shall wear midnight.
