Exit Night Juliets Theme

	  		



E 
Somewhere there’s a country you remember from your youth 
       E 
On the surface of this country is the one they built on top of it. 
    Aadd9 
The Highway leads to everything,  
                                 E 
Except for what they buried underneath it. 
           Aadd9 
There is a country made of telegrams and tailcoats,  
              E 
and nobody to grieve it. 

             E 
But when the sun is getting lower then the highway marks the graves, 
        E                                                           Aadd9 
And the tail-lights, they circle like the roses of an infinite bouquet, 
              E                          Aadd9 
And everybody leaves tail-lights for the grey, 
                                 E 
Ghosts of railways and candleholders. 
    Aadd9                                 E 
And oh oh oh oh oooooo, ooooo ooooo ooooo ooooo, 

                Aadd9 
There’s been an accident a mile away from here, 
                        E 
I heard the sound of sirens, 
                Aadd9 
And they turned back again and as they disappeared, 
                 E 
I saw a trail behind them. 

            F#m                             C#m                  F#m        c#m 
You say the wind is up, it’s out collecting lives, 
            F#m                             C#m                  F#m        c#m 
You say the wind is up, it’s out collecting lives, 
        A                                B 
An exit night, 
          E 
Is coming through, 

       E 
Oh the wind is up, it’s moving like no wind I’ve ever known, 
        E 
And the page that I was reading was the first that had to go, 
    Aadd9                                                      E 
But still I kept on reading like the dead who have a memory of living, 
            Aadd9 
Because the wind is here to take the thing,  
                               E 
I don’t think I am ready to be giving, 
    Aadd9 
And Romeo, Romeo, wherefore art thy Juliette? 
    Aadd9 
She flew up with the table out the window, 
                          E 
Now she’s mixing with the dead. 
             Aadd9 
Oh won’t you make her go away I am not ready for her yet, 
   Add9                                                    E 
Oh make her go away, I am not ready, I’m not ready for her yet. 
            F#m                             C#m                  F#m         c#m  
And now the wind is up, it’s out collecting lives, 
            F#m                             C#m                  F#m         c#m 
You say the wind is up, it’s out collecting lives, 
        Aadd9   B              E 
An exit night     is coming true, 
        Aadd9            E 
An exit night, is coming through, 
     Aadd9               E 
Exit night, has come for you, 
        F#m        
Oh exit light,  
     B 
exit moon,  
        F#m       B       
Tell me why 
       E 
Why so soon? 
        Aadd9    E 
I don’t know.  
        Aadd9    E 
I don’t know. 
         Aadd9 
Oooooo ooooo. 
      E 
Ooooo ooooo. 

(Fingerpicked outro) 

E 
And o,  
      Aadd9 
Go to sleep, 
  E 
Tomorrow, 

The day,  
      C#m 
Would be, 
       F#m     B    E 
I will read to your memory, 
     E 
Fly away,  
           Aadd9 
There’s no need 
   E 
To worry, 
       C#m     F#m      B       E 
I will read, into  your     memory, 
E 
Leave your brain.
