Thirty Year Night(Keyboard chords)

	        
Intro: Am 

 

Am 
The night-time crept quickly 
                             F 
And finished the last of the Sun 
Am 
I closed my eyes and tried hard 
                   F 
To forget what I'd done 
Am 
There's darkness sweeps down 
                           F 
From above and consumes my soul 
G                      F               Am 
Like night it's so empty and bitterly cold 

Am 
I'm heavy with burdens 
                               F 
That shatter my last chance at sleep 
Am 
I hear them all crying 
                   F 
See my poor mother weep 
Am 
A guard on my left 
                         F 
A gavel slams down on my right 
G             F 
And iron bars close 
                 Am 
On a thirty year night 


F      C            G 
Oh Lord, take me home 
F      G            Am 
Oh Lord, take me home 
F      C            G 
Oh Lord, take me home 
F      G            Am 
Oh Lord, take me home 


Am 
I scribble a note 
                                    F 
Say I'm sorry that it happened this way 
Am 
Exhaling my last breath so free 
                    F 
Knowing not what to say 
Am 
The light burns my eyes 
                   F 
But I see peace so clear 
G                       F 
My heart bids my soul a farewell 
                 Am 
Feet kicking the air 


F      C         G 
Oh Lord, take me home 
F      C         G 
Oh Lord, take me home 
F      C         G 
Oh Lord, take me home 
F      C         G 
Oh Lord, take me home 


Final:  F  C  G 
        F  C  G 
        F  C  G 
        F  C
