[G] [C]
[G] Oh,
[C]
the gentlemen are [G] talking, [C] and the midnight moon is on the riverside.
They're drinking up and [G] walking, [C] and it is time for me to slide.
[G] [C] I live in [F] another [G] world, where [C] life and death are [F]
[G] memorized.
[C] Where the earth is strung with lovers' pearls, and all I see [F] are [C] dark.
[Gm] [C]
The cock is crowing far [G] away, [C] and another soldier's deep in prayer.
Some mother's child has gone [G] astray, [C] and she can't find him anywhere.
[G] But [C] I can hear [G] another drum [C] beating for the dead [G] that rise.
[C] Who nature's beast fears as [G] they come, [C] and all I see [F] are dark.
[C]
They tell me to be [G] discreet [C] for all [F] intended [C] purposes.
They tell me [G] revenge is sweet, [C] and from where they stand I'm sure it is.
[G] But [C] I feel nothing for [G] their game, where [C] beauty goes
[G] [C] unrecognized.
All I feel is heat [G] and flame, [C] and all I see are dark.
[Gm] [C]
Oh, the French girl, [Am] she's in [G] paradise, [C] and a drunken man is at the wheel.
Hunger [F] pays a heavy [G] price [C] to the falling [F] gods of [C] speed and steel.
[Em] Oh, [C] time is short and the days [G] are sweet, and [C] passion rules the [G] arrow that flies.
[C]
A million faces [Am] at [G] my feet, [C] and all I see are dark.
