[B] [D#m] [B]
[F#] The ashtray [D#m] was full of orange peels [F#] When you woke up, [D#m] the dream wasn't [B] real
The sky [F#] like a bruise [B] Smoking your last cigarette
[C#] On the stoop at the end [F#] of the night A cold wind blew [D#m] through the swings in the
park [F#] By dinner time, [D#m] it was already dark
[B] The rain had [F#] turned to snow [B] Everything whiter than a [C#] hundred ghosts at
the end [F#] of the night Count the [D#m] roads and count your [F#] friends
In case you have to [D#m] walk home in the end Before [B] I change [F#] my mind
Or [B] you draw [C#] the line at the end [F#] of the night [C#] At the [D#m] end of [B] the night
There [F#] are no [A#m] more stars [B] left in [C#] the sky [F#] And [A#m] all the black [B] turns [C#] into white
[F#] On a dead end [D#m] street where the train goes [F#] past
Raking leaves [D#m] into piles on the grass No [B] matter how clear [F#] things appear
We never [B] get closer [C#] than our fear At the end [F#] of the night
Like a tree [D#m] I can't identify [F#] Those eyes define [D#m] and insecure
At the same time when [B] we stood in [F#] the road Your hair [B] on my coat
You're [C#] smelling my clothes At the end [F#] of the night
I fell asleep [D#m] trying to stay awake [F#] The footprints were lost [D#m] when the snow
turned back to rain But [B] if the birds made [F#] the way home
Will [B] you still know which [C#] way to go At the end [F#] of the night
[C#] At the end [B] of the night [F#] There are no [A#m] more stars [B] left in [C#] the sky
[F#] And all [A#m] the black [B] turns [C#] into white
