[Bb]
[F] [C]
[Gm] There's an old man living in the back [Bb] of your woods tonight
[F] You forgot he was even there But [C] you never slipped his mind
[Gm] He's living off of scraps of you You [Bb] never knew you left behind
[F] And as the sun goes down He rises with a [C] smile
He's waiting on the night [Eb] to fall The old man's [Bb] coming to call
[F] But you don't see the writing on [Gm] the wall He'll never step out in [Eb] the light
No, he's just [Bb] biding time And [Dm] while you slumber
He's gonna come and take [D] it all He's waiting on the [Eb] night to fall
[Gm] He's waiting on the [F] night to fall
[C] [Gm] He knows you have the answers But truth [Bb] lies dusty on your shelf
[F] And the sword that you could slay him with Has [C] become an ornament and nothing else
[Gm] You could put him back down If it's all in the ground
[Bb] But he knows you never will He's [F] been around so long
You got used to [C] the [G] smell He's waiting on the [Eb] night to fall
The old man's [Bb] coming to call But [F] you don't see the writing on [Gm] the wall
He'll never step out in [Eb] the light No, he's just biding [Bb] his time
[F] And as you slumber He's gonna come and take [D] it all
He's waiting on the [Eb] night to fall He's [Gm] waiting on the [F] night to fall
He [C] [Eb] knows he'll never have your soul But [Gm] he will gladly rock you blind
[F] While you're feasting at his table He'll tie [C] your hands and numb your mind
He'll [Eb] take you farther than you wanna go He'll [Gm] keep you longer than you wanna stay
[F] And it will cost you more than you ever thought [C] you'd pay
He's waiting on the [Bb] night to fall The old man's coming to call
But [F] you don't see the writing on [Gm] the wall He'll never step out in [Eb] the light
No, he's just [Bb] biding his time [F] And as you slumber
He's gonna [D] come and take it all He's waiting on the [Gm] night to fall
[Eb] [Bb]
