G D
This old house is falling down around my ears
C G D C
I am drowing in a river of my tears
G D
When all my will is gone you hold me sway
C G D G
And I need you at the dimming of the day
D A
You pull me like the moon pulls on the tide
D A D G C
You know just where I keep my better side
G D
What days have come to keep us far apart
C G D C
A broken promise or a broken heart
G D
Now all the bonnie birds have wheeled away
C G D G
And I need you at the dimming of the day
D A
Come the night you're only what I want
D A D G C
Come the night you could be my confidant
G D
I see you on the street in compagny
C G D C
Why don't you come and ease your mind with me
G D
I am leaving for the night we steal away
C G D G
And I need you at the dimming of the day
C G D G C G
