The Night Inside Me
View chords used in this chart
Verse
F G
I used to lay out in a field under the Milky Way
F G
With everything that I was feeling that I could not say
Em
With every doubt and every sorrow that was in my way
F G
Tearing around inside my head like it was there to stay
[Refrão]Em D C
Night in my eyes, the night inside me
Em D C
There where the shadows and the night could hide me
Em D
Night in my eyes
D C
Sky full of stars turning over me
C
Waiting for night to set me free
Verse
F G
I caught a ride into the city every chance I got
F G
I wasn't sure there was a name for the life I sought
Em
Now I'm a long way gone down the life I got
F G
I don't know how I believed some of the things I thought
[Refrão]Em D C
Night in my eyes, the night inside me
Em D C
There where the shadows and the night could hide me
Em D
Night in my eyes
D C
Sky full of stars turning over me
C
Waiting for night to set me free
Bridge
Em D C
It takes the night to clear all of this mess away
Em D C
The obligation, the burden and the light of day
Em D B
It takes the night to fall between the world I obey
C
And a world where I hear angels play
C
Maybe I should go back to Spain
Verse
F G
I walk around inside the questions of my day
F G
I navigate the inner reaches of my disarray
Em
I pass the altars where fools and thieves hold sway
F G
I wait for night to come and lift this dread away
[Refrão]Em D C
Night in my eyes, the night inside me
Em D C
There where the shadows and the night could hide me
Em D
Night in my eyes
D C
Sky full of stars turning over me
C
Waiting for night to set me free
