In The Blackness Of The Night

G C D G

In the blackness of the night I seem to wander endlessly

(G) C D

with a hope burning out deep inside

C D G Em

I'm a fugitive, community has driven me out

C D7 G Em

For this bad, bad world I'm beginning to doubt

G C Dsus4 D

I'm alone and there is no one by my side

G C D G

In the blackness of the night I see a shadow passing by

(G) C D

from the heels of an old soldier boy.

C D G Em

There's no comprimising and his eyes are black as the sky

C D7 G Em

For this bad, bad world he is going to die.

G C Dsus4 D

He's alone and there is no one by his side

G C D G

In the blackness of the night I see a sparkle of a star

(G) C D

from the sweet silver tear of a child

C D G Em

and she's clutching at a photograph of long, long ago

C D7 G Em

When her parents were happy she was too young to know

G C Dsus4 D

she's alone and there is no one by her side
