E
When the night falls in
E
The girls get dressed up fine
E
And weave their charms amongst the boys
A
As they are passing by
G#m F#m
While alone here in my room
G#m F#m
I revolve around the tune
G#m F#m
Helpless softly up from the street
B
And into the night sky
 
E
Up here night birds fly
E
Through my lonely times
E
I watch windows spill a lite up
A
On the streets outside
G#m F#m
Half the world keeps where it keeps
G#m F#m
Upon pillows, under sheets
G#m F#m
Lovers often love asleep
B
Knowing it's all right
 
A
Aaaaaa
B
If you were here nothing could matter
A
Aaaaaa
B
How long have I got to keep holding up?
 
BRIDGE E E E A G#m F#m G#m F#m G#m F#m B

B
If you were here nothing could matter
A

B
How long have I got to keep holding up?
 
E
When the night falls in
E
The girls get dressed up fine
E
And leave their foot prints where they danced
A
With someone close tonight
G#m F#m
But alone here in my room
G#m F#m
I let the fingers of the moon
G#m F#m
Touch my heart and tell me loose
B
Until the sunlight
 
E
When the night falls in
When the night falls in
When the night falls in
When the night falls in
