Start Jamming...
[C#] [F#]
[C#] It's a long [F#m] night, it's all [C#m] over, I'm sitting [F#m] alone,
I'm [C#m] just, [E]
[Bm] it's [D] a lonely, [A] tiny, little, end [F#m] of life.
No comfort, [C#m] no [F#m] tomorrow, [C#m] something's breaking,
[E] Worrying why I'm [Bm] still walking down [D] the streets of [A] my soul.
[F#m] You take my self, you take [C#m] my self control,
[F#m] You come and live and [C#m] only for the [E] people, the home, and [Bm] come those people.
[D] You take my self, you take [A] my self control,
[F#]
Another night, [C#m] another day goes by,
[F#] I never stop myself [C#m] to wonder why,
[E] You help me to forget [Bm] to play my role.
[A] You take my self, you take my self control,
[F#m]
[C#m] I live among the creatures [F#m] of the night,
[C#m] I haven't got the will to [E] try and fight,
[Bm] Against the new tomorrow, so [D] I just start to believe it,
[A] I [F#m] say tonight, [C#m] I'm living in the forest [F#m] of a dream,
[C#m] I know the light is not as [E] it would seem,
[Bm] I must believe in something, so [D] I'll make myself believe it,
[A] This night will never go,
[F#]
