Well nighttime passes but the dark remains
C D
And I was feeling like a little child but I am loathe to place blame
G C D
On my lioness-esque woman who will go here unnamed
C D G C D
She was looking in me for a lion when she found it so tame (oh)
G C D
On that erstwhile may morning I took the six downtown to Spring
C D
And I was writing something elegiac that I never learned to sing
G C D
But I think it was this song just four years premature
C D
And I remember crossing out the line 'All is fair in love and war'
G C G D
Well if all is fair in love and war
Em F#m/D G C
Then I don't know what we are fighting for
G C G F#m/D
'Cause my baby, she's a real peach even when the night come crashin' down
G C Am G F Dm
Real peach and the nighttime rolls away, alright
(still Dm) G C D
And we're comin' back to the demon-killing work of love (my god)
G C D
Well nighttime passes and the dark retreats
C D
I hand it over to my upper angel who visits me in sleep
G C D
We're in the field beyond the right and wrong and the fallacy of form
C D
Well you can call it what you wanna call it I just say "All is fair in love and war"
G C G D
Well if all is fair in love and war
Em F#m/D G C
Then I don't know what we are fighting for
G C G D
So if we don't care to fight no more
Em F#m/D G C
Let's go upstairs and let's shut the door
G C G F#m/D
'Cause my baby, she's a real peach even when the night come crashin' down
G C Am G F Dm
Real peach and the nighttime rolls away, alright
G C G F#m/D
'Cause my baby, she's a real peach even when the night come crashin' down
G C Am G F Dm
Real peach and the nighttime rolls away, alright
(still Dm) G C D
And we're comin' back to the demon-killing work of love (my god) illuminate
