[Intro]
G A G A D A
[Verse]
D A
Lying here beside you in the shadows
D
With your body close to mine
A
I can't help but wish that I could have
D
You here beside me all the time
D
Knowing that I cannot keep you
G G* D* Em
From your going when the day is done
D A
Makes me wish that I was tall enough
D
To reach the sky and stop the sun
[Chorus]
G F#m Em D
Now I can see the evening shadows slipping silent cross the floor
Bm A
And I curse the day for comin' to an end
G F#m Em D
You'll fix your face comb your hair and leave my arms once more
G A G A D
But when tomorrow comes we'll watch the evening shadows fall again
[Solo]
G A G A D A
[Verse]
D A
When we're here together I don't question
D
Why you came or why you go
A
I'm sure you have your reasons but your being
D
Here is all I have to know
D
Knowing when you come to me
G G* D* Em
There's nothing I can do to make you stay
D A
Just like all the other times you'll leave me
D
At the ending of the day
[Chorus]
G F#m Em D
Now I can see the evening shadows slipping silent cross the floor
Bm A
And I curse the day for comin' to an end
G F#m Em D
You'll fix your face comb your hair and leave my arms once more
G A G A D
But when tomorrow comes we'll watch the evening shadows fall again
