       C            E7            F               Dm7-5
In the still of the night, in the world's ancient light

      C/G    G7sus4      C        G
Where wisdom grows up in strife

     C         E7     F        Dm7-5
My bewildering brain, toils in vain

            C/G             G7sus4      C
Through the darkness on the pathways of life

     F         Fm6              C
Each invisible prayer is like a cloud in the air

  F            C/E      D7     Dm7/G
Tomorrow keeps turning around

   C           E7      F        Dm7-5
We live and we die, we know not why

            C/G               G7sus4    C
But I'll be with you when the deal goes down

[Verse 2]

   C          E7        F           Dm7-5
We eat and we drink, we feel and we think

C/G          G7sus4    C        G
Far down the street we stray

  C           E7          F       Dm7-5
I laugh and I cry and I'm haunted by

         C/G             G7sus4    C
Things I never meant nor wished to say

   F         Fm6  C
The midnight rain follows the train

   F            C/E         D7     Dm7/G
We all wear the same thorny crown

C       E7        F       Dm7-5
Soul to soul, our shadows roll

            C/G               G7sus4    C
And I'll be with you when the deal goes down

[Interlude] | C | E7 | F | Dm7-5 | | C/G | G7sus4 | C | G | [Verse 3]

          C          E7        F         Dm7-5
Well, the moon gives light and shines by night

  C/G      G7sus4   C      G(7sus4)
I scarcely feel the glow

   C        E7       F          Dm7-5
We learn to live and then we forgive

         C/G        G7sus4   C
O'er the road we're bound to go

     F                 Fm6     C
More frailer than the flowers, these precious hours

     F          C/E     D7     Dm7/G
That keep us so tightly bound

    C          E7          F               Dm7-5
You come to my eyes like a vision from the skies

            C/G               G7sus4    C
And I'll be with you when the deal goes down

[Solo] | C | E7 | F | Dm7-5 | | C/G | G7sus4 | C | G | [Verse 4]

        C           E7          F                Dm7-5
Well, I picked up a rose and it poked through my clothes

  C/G         G7sus4   C        G
I followed the winding stream

          C         E7       F              Dm7-5
I heard a deafening noise, I felt transient joys

C/G            G7sus4        C
I know they're not what they seem

        F         Fm6                C
In this earthly domain, full of disappointment and pain

       F     C/E    D7     Dm7/G
You'll never see me frown

         C        E7              F         Dm7-5
I owe my heart to you, and that's sayin' it true

            C/G               G7sus4    C       G(sus4)
And I'll be with you when the deal goes down

[Outro] | C | A7 | Dm7 | G7-9 | C * * The last bar of the outro, basically a G7-9, sounds different on the recording, because the bass does not play the root g. This might be a good way of playing it, too: | Fdim Fdim Ddim | C
