DLong legged shadows,
AMississippi sunset,
DShe was standing like a candle,
GThat hadn't been burned yet.
DThe wind was blowing,
AThe clouds like ashes,
DHad my hand in my pocket,
GReaching for my matches.
DI can see those cotton sheets daAncing,
DOn her momma's clothesline in myA head,
D>From my lips a Lucky Strike wasA dangling,
DThe day was dying in a sea of reAd.
DThen came the night, AWarm and dark,
GDragging it's chains, AAcross our hearts.
DThe moon was full, AThe grass was wet
GMaking us scream, AMaking us sweat
DHolding on tight, AIt was wrong, it was right
DThen came the night G
DThere was a time
AWhen love was a flower
DNow it's a vine
GClinbing up the tower
DAnd the river just rolls
APast the garden
DWhere love won't grow
GAnd the ground is hardened.
DI can see that tAattered white flag flying
DI can hear the rAinging mission bell
DTelling of the iAnnocence that's dying
DA sound that I rAemember oh so well.
DThen came the night, AWarm and dark
GDragging its chains, AAcross our hearts
DThe moon was full, AThe grass was wet
GMaking us scream, AMaking us sweat
DMaking us cling, GMaking us claw
DMaking us rise, AMaking us fall
DBreath on breath, ASkin on skin
GI can't go back, AThere again
DHoldin on tight, AIt was wrong, it was right
DThen came the night. G
