_ N-E-X-T-I
_ _ _ [Dm] _ _
_ [Dbm] _ [Dm] _ _ _ [Dbm] _ [Dm] _ _
_ _ [A] _ I am _ the God _ _ of the night
I am the God of _ [Bb] _ [A] _ _
_ _ the night
I am _ _ _
_ [Bb] _ [A] _ _ [C] the [Bb] [A] God of the night
_ _ _ _ _ [Bb] I am the God of the night
[A] _
_ [Bbm] _ [A] _ _ _ [C] _ [Bb] _ _
_ [Dm] Naked, a sin, an army, towel, _ covering my belly
Some of us weep, some of us howl, knees [Em] turn to jelly
But next, _ _ [A] [Db] next, _ I was just a child, a hundred like me
I followed a naked body, [Dm] a naked body followed me
_ Next, _ next, _ _ [Gm] I was [C] just a child [F] when my innocence was lost
[Bb] In a mobile army food house, [A] a gift of the army, free of cost
Next, _ [A] _
next, _ _ _ me, _ _
_ [Dm] _ I really would have liked a little bit of tenderness
Maybe a word, maybe a smile, [A] maybe some [Ab] happiness
But _ [Am] next, _ [A] next, _ oh it was not so tragic
And [A] heaven did not fall, but how much at the time I [Dm] hated being there at all
Next, _ next, _ I [Cm] still recall the brothel [F] trucks, the flying [F] flags
[Bb] The queer lieutenant slapped that [A] arse he's thinking [A] we were fags
Next, next, _ _ [Am] I _
_ _ _ _ _ [Bb] _ [E] _ _
swear, _ _ _ [Dm] _ _ _
ahead of my first [G] case of [D] gonorrhea
It is [A] his ugly voice that I forever fear _
Next, _ _ next, a voice that thinks of whiskey, of Marxism and of mud
The voice [D] of nations, [Dm] the voice of blood and wars
_ Next, [G] since then each [C] woman I have [F] taken in two beds
[Bb] They seem to lie on my arms and they [A] whisper in my head _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [Am] _ Next, next, [A] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [Em] _ [Dm] _ _ could hold each other's hands as they watch me dream at night
In a dream that nobody [A] understands
[Bb] _ [A] _ _ _ [Bb] _ [A] And though I am not dreaming in a voice grown bright hollow
I stand on endless naked [Dm] lines of the following and I follow the next
_ Next, one day I'll cut [Gm] my [C] legs off, I'll burn myself [F] alive
I'll [Bb] do anything to get out of life, to [E] survive, not ever to be [A] [Bb] next
[A] _ Next, [Bb] _ [A] _
next, _ [Bb] _ not now _ _
_ _ [A] _ _ _ [Bbm] _ [A] _ _
_ _ [Bb] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [A] _ _ _ [Bbm] _ [A] _ _
