[F#] [C#m] It's close to midnight, something evil's lurking in the [E]
dark.
[C#m] Under the moonlight, [E] see a [C#m] sight that almost stops your heart.
You [F#] try to scream, [C#m] but terror takes the sound before you make it.
You start to [F#] breathe, [E] and so it looks [C#m] you hide between your eyes.
You're [B] paralyzed,
[C#m] cause this is daylight, daylight.
[F#] And no one's gonna [C#m] save you from the [F#m] beast of love [C#m] striking through.
Cause this is daylight, daylight.
[F#] Throw your life inside a
[E] caterpillar [C#m] for tonight.
Oh, you break the door slam, realize there's nowhere [E] left to run.
[C#m] You feel the cold, wonder if you'll ever see the sun.
You close your [F#] eyes, [B] and hope that [C#m] this is just a machination.
Girl, but all the while, [E] you hear a creature [C#m] creeping up behind.
You're out of time, cause this is daylight, daylight.
Ain't no second chance to tempt the being with a forty-five.
[E]
[C#m] [F#] Throw your life inside [A] a caterpillar [C#m] for tonight.
[F#]
All in the dead start to [A] walk in their masquerade.
[C#m] There's no escaping [B] the jaws of the alien [A#m] inside.
[A] This is daylight.
[G#]
[B] They're about to [E] get you.
Demons come flying [C#m] on every side.
They will possess you, unless you change that number from your dial.
Now is the [F#] time [E] for you and I to [C#m] cuddle close together.
Here in the club, all through the [F#] night.
[E] I'll save you from the [C#m] terror on the screen.
I'll make you [E] see that this is daylight, [C#m] daylight.
Cause I can feel you more than any ghost would ever dare try.
Let [F#] me hold you tight and share a dinner, dinner.
[D#] I'm sure that [D] the river [B] is a fire.
[C#m]
[F#] I can feel you more than any ghost [C#m] would ever dare try.
So let me hold you tight and share a dinner, dinner.
I'm gonna fall tonight.
Darkness falls across the land.
The midnight hour is close at hand.
Creatures [C#] crawl in search of blood to [C#m]
terrorize your neighborhood.
And whosoever shall be found without the soul for getting down.
Must stand and face the hounds of hell [A] and [C#m] rot inside a corpse shell.
I'm gonna [C#] do it tonight.
Ooh, baby.
I'm gonna do it tonight, baby.
[F#] Oh, darling.
[C#m] I'm gonna do it tonight, baby.
Ooh, baby.
I'm gonna do it tonight, baby.
[F#] Oh, darling.
I'm gonna do [C#] it tonight, baby.
Ooh.
The foulest stenches in the air.
The funk of 40,000 years.
And grisly goons from every tomb are closing in to seal your doom.
And though you fight to stay alive, [F#] your body starts to shiver.
[C#] For no mortal can [C#m] resist the evil of [F#] the thriller.
