The Deal

Intro: A#4  G#m  B  F# 


A#4            G#m            B             F# 
     There's a deal you can make on a midnight walk alone 
A#4            G#m            F# 
     Look around, listen close, hear it fall from above 
A#4          G#m             B                          F# 
     It will ask what you'd give and what you'd take for it in return 
A#4            G#m           F#                B 
     I once went on such a walk and I found that I'd said 


B      F#         B         G#m 
I want someone to take this soul 
 B              G#m      B                  G#m 
I can't bear to keep it, I'd give it just to give 
   B          D#    E            C#m  B 
And all I will take are the consequences 
B        F#    B 
Will somebody take this soul? 

( A#4  G#m  F#  B ) 


A#4              G#m           B 
     Then, of course, nothing replied 
                  F# 
Nothing speaks to you in the night 
A#4            G#m        F# 
     And I walked my way home, there was no one in sight 
A#4          G#m        B              F# 
     Save a bird perched upon a streetlight, watching me 
A#4            G#m               F#                     B 
     So, I stopped and let it watch till I found that it said 


B       F#          B        G#m 
Now I'm taken, the night has me 
    B         F#                    B            G#m 
You won't hear me singing, you're a cage without me 
B            D#          E              C#m 
Your pain is eased, but you'll never be free 
  B          F#         B 
For now, I'm taken, the night has me
