verse 1:
B Abm
Stumble on to the pavement; they're strapped tight to bed
Dbm
They've got a fetish for sheep, straitjacket sheets
F#
But I've got Randy Newman in my head
B Abm
This is no corn-fed day, it's gloomy, blue, and cold
Dbm
So let the muggings occur, I feel secure
F#
They say that I'm peculiar
E Abm F#
But oh I don't know, I don't care, I'll be waiting for you there
E Abm F#
Crave this chill, bathe in black, All the ghouls and fiends attack
E Abm F#
Knees go weak, and I swoon, underneath the pallet moon
E Abm F#
Praise the night, and praise the night. The only time I feel alright
verse 2:
B Abm
Under the sun gods stare, I wince and blossom hives
Dbm
Counting the fractions of day, rotting away
F#
As businessmen just drink away their eyes
B Abm
But when the stars once shy, come bloom and blanket earth
Dbm
I feel beloved and blessed, quite Byron-esque
F#
The need to just get off my chest that, oh
E Abm F#
But oh I don't know, I don't care, I'll be waiting for you there
E Abm F#
Crave this chill, bathe in black, All the ghouls and fiends attack
E Abm F#
Knees go weak, and I swoon, underneath the pallet moon
E Abm F#
Praise the night, and praise the night. The only time I feel alright
E B F#
But oh I don't know, I don't care, I'll be waiting for you there
E B F#
Crave this chill, bathe in black, All the ghouls and fiends attack
E B F#
Knees go weak, and I swoon, underneath the pallet moon
E B F#
Praise the night, and praise the night. The only time I feel alright
