Standard (EADGBE)

 The night has to come

 This much I know

 As the light fades out

 The wind begins to blow

 And I am alone and will forever be

 Just me, just me, just me

 The silence full of everything

 The silence full of truth

Life is happening

 Oh oh age and youth

 If I could love you my way

 Then that's all I can do

 And I do, and I do, I do

 The past is behind me

 The future don't exist

 The night is inside of me

 And I must live with it

And there's a longing inside me

 Big as the ocean

 'Bout to carry me away

 And wash me over clean

 And I see it in my dreams

 And I know that it's coming

 But when, oh when, oh when

 The past is behind me

 The future don't exist

 The night is inside of me

 And I must live with it

And don't you think I know by now

Everything I'm supposed to do

 When all the wisdom is up and down

 I open up and let it though

 The past is behind me

 The future don't exist

 The night is inside of me

 And I must live with it

 The light has to come

 This much I know

 As the city wakes up

 The sky begins to glow

 And still I am alone

 But I'm never lonely

 'Cause it's me, just me, just me

 The past is behind me

 The future don't exist

 The night is inside of me

 And I must live with it

 Oh and I must live with it

 Oh now and I must live with it
