Dark Night

(início)

E                                           G  E
hot air hangs like a dead man
E                              G  E
from a white oak tree
E                                     G  E
people sitting on porches
E
thinking how things used to be
G      E
dark night
G              E
it's a dark night
G      E
dark night
G              E
it's a dark night
E                                                G  E
the neighborhood was changing
E                            G  E
strangers moving in
E                                          G  E
a new boy fell for a local girl
E
when she made eyes at him
A
she was young and pretty
A                                    G  E
no stranger to other men
E
but windows were being locked at night
E
old lines were drawn again
B7
I thought these things
B7
didn't matter anymore
A
I thought all that blood
A
had been shed long ago
G      E
dark night
         G     E
it's a dark night
he took her to the outskirts
and pledged his love to her
they thought it was their secret
but someone knew where they were
he held her so close
he asked about her dreams
when a bullet from a passing car
made the young girl scream
i thought these things
didn't happen anymore
i thought all that blood
had been shed long ago
dark night
it's a dark night
dark night
it's a dark night
