lyrics

Peace With The Night
Em C
Chorus: She tells me sleep well
D Em
Then She turns out the light
D C
I’m left in the dark, and the whispers and shadows
D Em
To make peace with the night

D
To make peace with the shadows
Em
And the sounds of the dark
D G
With the places I’ve been, the faces I’ve seen
Em C D
Things I have done that I’ll always regret
Em C D Em
And the plans that we’ve made that have not come due yet

May the night bring you sleep
May the dark cleanse your soul
May you never know the tossing and turning
Constantly yearning after impossible goals
May the dark bring relief when you turn out the lights
My you easily make your peace with the night

Chorus



Deep in the night
Far into the dark
I awake with a start - I feel deep in my heart
My dreams and desires, how I’d love to be free
But the chains and the bars of my thoughts surround me
Daylight or dark I will never be free

I wait in the dark
For the sun’s early glow
I hear the birds greet the daylight again
Realize how I’ve been, only then do I know
No matter how much my mind struggles and fights
This day I will not make my peace with the night

Chorus - end of last vs - Chorus - end of last vs end
Intro = Em, Bm - Em, D, C, Em
Interlude Em, Bm, C - Bm, C, Em
