(A work in progress) Love this song.
You live bFy night
And waste thAme day
You gFive yourself
You give yourself aAmway
I kBbnow that when you started
You lCiked the way you felt
And Bbyes I understand you
But to eCverybody else...
It's black and Dmwhite
To you it's Cgrey
You know I'll Bblove you anyGmway
But it sFeems to Dmme you're Amliving Con the rGm7un
But I Bbhope you Gmknow you're Bbnot the only one
Who lives by Fnight
Lives by Dmnight
They're Bbonly Gm7trying to Cchase away the sun
And when you Fplay
The way you Amdo
The Fsun don't shine
The same Amway for you
And you Bbsay you don't abuse it
But Cbaby I can tell
We Bbboth know what the truth is
But to eCverybody else...
It's black and white
It's night and day
You know I'll love you anyway
But it seems to me you're living on the run
And now you know you're not the only one...
Who lives by night
Lives by night
We're only trying to chase away the sun
We, we were so intimate
You, you were so into it
But they, they pulled you in
And now that they're gone
We're only trying to work out what went wrong
You live by night
Live by night
But you're only trying to chase away the sun

Gm7

(A work in progress) Love this song.

You live by night

And waste the day

You give yourself

You give yourself away

I know that when you started

You liked the way you felt

And yes I understand you

But to everybody else...

It's black and white

To you it's grey

Bb Gm

You know I'll love you anyway

F Dm Am C Gm7

But it seems to me you're living on the run

Bb Gm Bb

But I hope you know you're not the only one

Who lives by night

Lives by night

Bb Gm7 C

They're only trying to chase away the sun

And when you play

The way you do

The sun don't shine

The same way for you

And you say you don't abuse it

But baby I can tell

We both know what the truth is

But to everybody else...

It's black and white

It's night and day

You know I'll love you anyway

But it seems to me you're living on the run

And now you know you're not the only one...

Who lives by night

Lives by night

We're only trying to chase away the sun

We, we were so intimate

You, you were so into it

But they, they pulled you in

And now that they're gone

We're only trying to work out what went wrong

You live by night

Live by night

But you're only trying to chase away the sun
