Lee Hazlewood – Victims Of The Night (Guitar)

C                          F
Hmmm the searchin' fingers of the dawn 

    G                               C
Are slowly creepin' up the eastern sky

                        F
So I won't disturb your sleep 

              G                                 C
And I'll just touch your cheek and leave without goodbye

        F
Hmm but if you find regrets are waitin' for ya 

    G                        F   
Ah, don't blame yourself and don't blame me

    G            F                 C     Bb F  C  Bb F
For we were only victims of the night

C                          F
Before you cuss the morning sun just pause 

    G                               C
And wonder are we really wrong

                        F
How many other lovers are awaking 

        G              C
to face their own gray dawn

        F
And they must also answer probin' questions 

    G                        F   
Yeah should they regret or could it be 

    G            F                 C     Bb F  C  Bb F
We all were only victims of the night

C                          F
As I leave you now you're smilin' 

    G                               C
And I know that I'm gonna remember you that way

                        F
I don't need hasty promises to cling to 

    G                  C
As I go to face that day

        F
I only hope that I'll awake to find the embers 

    G                        F   
And perhaps someday I'll find you and be grateful 

    G            F                 C     Bb F  C  Bb F
We were victims of the night
