[Intro]
AEDA
[Verse]
A
Can you give me something?
E
Tonight, I'm so alone
F#mD
The moon is upside down, hanging on a telephone
AE
But I remember every little bad dream
F#mD
Every pretty slow dance
[Pre-Chorus]
F#mDAE
So can I pick you up later? (When your temperature's better)
F#mDAE
If you need a little shelter (Be your cool operator)
F#mDAE
Keep it all quiet, yeah (Just a little longer)
F#mDAE
Let the night wind you down, baby, down
[Chorus]
AE
And she smiles, how about that?
F#mD
I was just about to jump before you called me back
AE
And you know the pain comes home
F#mD
And the whispers come to call me in my bed when I'm alone
AE
And I've lost so much more than I ever had
F#mD
Now my name is the night, honey,
AE
color me black
DA
C-color me black
[Verse]
A
Can I take you somewhere?
E
Would it make a difference?
F#mD
Like pretty roses on a deathbed
AE
But I remember you in your white dress
F#mD
In your mama's hands
[Pre-Chorus]
F#mDAE
So can I pick you up later? (When your temperature's better)
F#mDAE
If you need a little shelter (Be your cool operator)
F#mDAE
Keep it all quiet, yeah (Just a little longer)
F#mDAE
Let the night wind us down, baby, down
[Chorus]
AE
And she smiles, how about that?
F#mD
I was just about to jump before you called me back
AE
And you know the pain comes home
F#mD
And the whispers come to call me in my bed when I'm alone
AE
And I've lost so much more than I ever had
F#mD
Now my name is the night, honey,
AE
color me black
DA
C-color me black
[Bridge]
F#mD
And how long, how long
AE
until you believe that part of me is gone?
F#mD
With your sweet, naive kiss
AE
I used to feel the same until I let the darkness in
F#mD
And it costs me nothing, baby, not nothing more than this
AE
Nothing more than this useless heart in my chest
F#mD
Nothing that I needed, nothing I regret
AE
Nothing that I needed, and I'd do it all again
DA
I'd do it all again
[Chorus]
AE
And she smiles, how about that?
F#mD
I was just about to jump before you called me back
AE
But you know the pain comes home
F#mD
And the whispers come to call me in my bed when I'm alone
AE
Singing, "Ooh, not just yet"
F#mD
When I go, I'll be going out in flames and fiery wrecks
AE
And the quiet to me, such an ominous sound
F#mD
Said my name is the nighttime now
AE
Yes, the quiet to me, such an ominous sound
F#mD
And my name is the night, honey, color me black
