Dimming Of The Day chords (live version, California 2005) Capo IV G
                                         D
This old house is falling down around my ears

    C               G              D    D Dsus2 D
I'm drowning in the fountain of my tears

     G                               D
When all my will is gone you hold me sway

  C               G       D      G   C D G
I need you at the dimming of the day

    D                                  A
You pull me like the moon pulls on the tide

    D                                A    D G C
You know just where I keep my better side

     G                              D
What days have come to keep us far apart

  C              G           D    D Dsus2 D
A broken promise or a broken heart

G                                      D
Now all the bonnie birds have wheeled away

  C               G       D      G  C D G
I need you at the dimming of the day
Break
D                                 A
Come the night you're only what I want

D                                   A    D G C
Come the night you could be my confidant

  G                             D
I see you on the street in company

    C                  G                   D  D Dsus2 D
Why don't you come and ease your mind with me

    G                              D
I'm living for the night we steal away

  C               G       D      G   C D G
I need you at the dimming of the day

  C               G       D      G
I need you at the dimming of the day
