Slowly Goes the Night (2010 Remaster) Chords

[Eb] _ _ _ Darling, that morning [Dm] you chose to go, I awoke from my [Eb] boots and gloves.
You're digging my car, stole [Bb] my cash, stealing my $500 super [Em] _
[Eb] slayers.
And I just lay there watching [Bb] the sun fall down from the sky,
[Eb] not wanting to open the letter, but open it anyway, [Dm] and seeing [Gm] those two words.
[Bb] _ [G] Lover, lover, [Eb] goodbye, _ _ _ _ _ _
[Bb] _ _ _ so slowly [Eb] goes the _ night. _ _ _ _
[Bb] _ _ _ _ _ _ Next [Cm] to me lies your _ body playing like [F] the map of some forbidden [Eb] land.
I [Bbm] trace [Eb] the ghost of your [Cm] bones [Bb] with my _ trembling [Cm] _ hand.
[Fm] _ _ _ _ _ _ Dark [Cm] is my night, _ _ and darker is [Fm] my _ _ day. _ _
_ [Cm] _ _ _ I must have [Ab] been blind, I [Bb] had it in my mind, I never, never [Gm] saw the warning [Ab] _ _ _ _
signs.
_ [Fm] How goes it?
It [Gm] goes a lonely, [D] it goes _ _ slowly. _ _ _ _ _
As all slowly [Eb] goes the night.
_ _ _ _ [Bb] _ _ _
A ten lonely days, [Eb] a ten lonely _ _ _ nights.
[Bb] _ _ _ _
_ I watch [Eb] the moon get blade each night, [F] until the moon becomes the skin.
[Eb] Tonight, the skins are my sins, I [Bb] send to cover [F] and comfort [Eb] _ [Fm] you. _ _ _
_ _ I'm over here, _ [C]
but [Cm] honey I'm over [Fm] here. _
_ _ _ _ [Cm] _ _ _ _
_ I hang [Ab] on my head, I toss [Bb] in my bed, I never, [Gm] never forget the words [Ab] you _ _ said. _ _
[Fm] One evening _ _ [Gm] I'm leaving, and [D] I laugh and check the breathing.
I said darling, I go slowly through [Eb] the night. _ _ _ _ _
[Bb] _ _ _ Oh baby, I feel [Eb] the _ _ hilltop, _ _ [Bb] and the birds.
_ _ _ I wait [Cm] to find you sitting right there, [F] cutting _ tangles, and in [Eb] your hair,
[Bb] singing a [Eb] song that's all wrong, baby, [Bb] that's a lie, I [Cm] don't care. _
[Fm] _ _ _ _ _ _ Don't [Cm] want sorrow, for all your _
[Fm] misery, _ _ _ _ _ baby.
[Cm] _ _ _ _ I reach [Ab] out and embrace, and [Bb] empty space, a song that [Gm] slowly, [Ab] slowly _ fades.
_ _ _ [Fm] Where goes it?
[Gm] It goes someplace, [D] it goes _ somewhere with no name. _ _ _ _
And black [Eb] as the _ night, _ _ [Dm] come _ _ _ _ on [Eb] hold on me.
Let's put things [Bb] right, put things right.
I hang [Cm] my head, and cry, cry, [F] cry.
Darling, _ oh God I [Eb] try, I see done, I [Cm] reasoned, thought [Bb] this may be a [Fm] season. _ _ _ _ _ _
But now that they are so [Cm] long now, I can't remember being [Fm] _ alive.
_ _ _ Call it [Cm] sleep, call it death, call it what you [Fm] _ _ _
_ like.
But only [Cm] sleep, _ only sleep brings you back to [Fm] _ _
life.
_ _ _ _ _ [Cm] _ _
_ _ I hang my [Ab] head, I toss [Bb] my sweat, I never, never, [Gm] never can [Ab] forget. _ _ _ _ _
[Fm] How goes it?
[Gm] Well, how I'm going?
[D] Baby, slow it, slowly going.
And we both know that it's gonna [Gm] be alright. _ _ _ _
_ _ [Bb] _ _ _ _ _ _
Thank [Eb] you for that game, _ rock, rock, rock.
_ [Bb] _ _ _ _ Mmm, I'm a damn [Eb] lonely baby, damn [Bb] lonely _ man. _ _ _ _
_ Ah, since [Eb] you left my side, _ [Bb] side, _ side.
