Then Came The Night

Written by Chuck Jones/John Kilzer

	  		 
INTRO:  D A D G 
 
 
D                     
Long legged shadows,  
A 
Mississippi sunset, 
D 
She was standing like a candle, 
G 
That hadn't been burned yet. 
D                     
The wind was blowing, 
A 
The clouds like ashes, 
D 
Had my hand in my pocket, 
G 
Reaching for my matches. 
 
 
D                               A 
I can see those cotton sheets dancing, 
D                               A 
On her momma's clothesline in my head, 
D                               A 
>From my lips a Lucky Strike was dangling, 
D                               A 
The day was dying in a sea of red. 
 
tabchorus
D A Then came the night, Warm and dark, G A Dragging it's chains, Across our hearts. D A The moon was full, The grass was wet G A Making us scream, Making us sweat D A Holding on tight, It was wrong, it was right D G Then came the night

D There was a time A When love was a flower D Now it's a vine G Clinbing up the tower D And the river just rolls A Past the garden D Where love won't grow G And the ground is hardened. D A I can see that tattered white flag flying D A I can hear the ringing mission bell D A Telling of the innocence that's dying D A A sound that I remember oh so well. CHORUS D A Then came the night, Warm and dark G A Dragging its chains, Across our hearts D A The moon was full, The grass was wet G A Making us scream, Making us sweat D G Making us cling, Making us claw D A Making us rise, Making us fall D A Breath on breath, Skin on skin G A I can't go back, There again D A Holdin on tight, It was wrong, it was right D G Then came the night. {Thanks to [email protected] for tabs}
