hi :) i think all the other tabs are a little wrong, and mine probably is too.. oh well! :)
intro
C E Am F
Verse 1
C E7 Am F
In the still of the night, in the world's ancient light
C Dm C F
()
Where wisdom grows up in strife
C E7 Am F
My bewildering brain, toils in vain
C Dm C
Through the darkness on the pathways of life
Bridge
F G Am C
Each invisible prayer is like a cloud in the air
F Dm E
Tomorrow keeps turning around
Chorus
C E7 Am F
We live and we die, we know not why
C Dm C
But I'll be with you when the deal goes down
Pretty much the same from there! :)
Verse 2
We eat and we drink, we feel and we think
Far down the street we stray
I laugh and I cry and I'm haunted by
Things I never meant nor wished to say
Bridge
The midnight rain follows the train
We all wear the same thorny crown
Chorus
Soul to soul, our shadows roll
And I'll be with you when the deal goes down
Verse 3
Well, the moon gives light and it shines by night
When I scarcely feel the glow
We learn to live and then we forgive
Over the road we're bound to go
Bridge
More frailer than the flowers, these precious hours
That keep us so tightly bound
Chorus
You come to my eyes like a vision from the skies
And I'll be with you when the deal goes down
Verse 4
Well, I picked up a rose and it poked through my clothes
I followed the winding stream
I heard the deafening noise, I felt transient joys
I know they're not what they seem
Bridge
In this earthly domain, full of disappointment and pain
You'll never see me frown
Chorus
I owe my heart to you, and that's saying it's true
And I'll be with you when the deal goes down
Outro
C E Am C
