This old [/] [G] house is falling [/] [G] down around my [/] [D] ears  [/] [D]  
I'm [/] [C] drowning in [/] [G] a river... of my [/] [D] tears [/] [D]  
When [/] [G] all my will is [/] [G] gone, you hold me [/] [D] sway [/] [D]  
and I [/] [C] need you at the [/] [G] dimming [D] of the [/] [Gsus4] day. [/] [G]  


{soc}
You [/] [D] pull me like the [/] [D] moon pulls on [/] [A] the tide  [/] [A]  
You [/] [D] know just where I [/] [D] keep my better [/] [A] side [/] [D] [G] [/] [C!]   
{eoc}


What [/] [G] days have come to [/] [G] keep us far a-  [/] [D] part?  [/] [D]  
A [/] [C] broken promise [/] [G] or a broken [/] [D] heart  [/] [D]  
Now [/] [G] all the bonnie [/] [G] birds have wheeled a-  [/] [D] way  [/] [D]  
and I [/] [C] need you at the [/] [G] dimming [D] of the [/] [G] day [/] [G]  


{soc}
[/] [D] Come the night you're [/] [D] only what I [/] [A] want  [/] [A]  
[/] [D] Come the night you could [/] [D] be my confi-  [/] [A] dant [/] [D] [G] [/] [C!]   
{eoc}


I [/] [G] see you on the [/] [G] street and in compa-  [/] [D] ny  [/] [D]  
Why [/] [C] don't you come and [/] [G] ease your mind [/] [D] with me [/] [D]  
I'm [/] [G] living for the [/] [G] night we steal a-  [/] [D] way  [/] [D]  
I [/] [C] need you at the [/] [G] dimming [D] of the [/] [G] day  [/] [C]  
yes I [/] [G] need you at the [/] [D] dimming of the [/] [G] day  [/] [G!]
