	  D		  A
The prizefighter and the heiress

	G		D
Both talented in their way

	D	     A
Both fighting for inheritance

	G		D
Both entitled to their day

	  D		     A
Said the fella, "I've thrown my gloves

       G	D
And loosed my shoes

       D	     A
Come join me in the ring, my friend

       G	    D A G
Quit these lonesome blues

       G	 D A G
Quit my lonesome blues"

      D	        	A
The lady thought the longest while

      G	        	D
And bathed the time in light

      D	             A
She came to the conclusion

	G		D
That he hadn't won the fight

	    D	            A
"Put your gloves back on," she says

	G		D
"And steady with your pride

	D                      A
You've dealt the eldest hand, my love

      G	        	D A G
But that part of me has died

	 G	    D A G
That part of me has died"

	D		A
I'm a fortune telling concubine

	G	    D
I'm a troubleshot saloon

	   D		A
You're a welterweight companion

	  G		  D
And your light is at the loom

      D		       A
I'd rather chase my options now

      G		      D
And place you in the past

      D		       A
The future's not yet written

	    G		    D A G
Though the die behind me is cast

     G		     D A G
The die behind me is cast

    D   	G	     D
I don't know anything about you

	 A		G	  Em
But I'm sure that the doors of perception

      G   	   D
Are true in their ways

	Em	   G
In the face of it all

	G	      D       Bm
In the stark staring face of it
Bm A Bm D A Bm A Bm
	Bm		 D
If you ask me where I'm going

	A		 Bm
I'll tell you where I've been

	D		 D5
'Cept you don't remember yesterday

	A	   (Bm A)Bm
And I don't remember anything

  Bm	     D
"Journey me west

    A	       Bm 
Or journey me south"

	 D	      D5
Said, "Please put me down

	  A	(Bm  A)	 Bm
Where my heart meets my mouth

 A	  Bm
Meets my mouth"

 G	      D
End of the requiem

 F#	    Bm

At the end of the night

 Bm		D
Stop where you laugh

     A		   Bm 
And look where you walk

 D	     D5
Manage your head

	A   (Bm A)  Bm
As you lighten your talk

 Bm	     D
Solace made bones

	      A		 Bm 
And they're chanting for air

 D	      D5
Sucking from mead

	A    (Bm A) Bm
In the coast of Rosslare

 A     Bm
Of Rosslare

 G	      D
End of the requiem

 F#	    Bm
End of the fight

End of the struggles

       Bm     (A)  D
At the end of the night

Me and my dream

   A	      Bm 
As me and my girl

      D	
Have more than

    D5	           A  (Bm A) Bm
A thousand square miles to twirl

     Bm	              D
The earth loves her children

	  A		   Bm 
Look and don't break your stride

 D	        D5
Keep watching forward

	A    (Bm  A)  Bm
Got an owl, watch my pride

 A	  Bm
Watch my pride

Thanks for the dark

Thanks for my guide

At the end of the night
