tender is the night chords
jackson browne

G D C
between the darkness on the street ,
Em D C
and the houses , filling up with light
G D C
between the stillness in my heart ,
Em D C
and the roar of the approaching night
G D C
somebody s calling after somebody ,
Em D C
somebody turns the corner out of sight ,
D
looking for somebody ,
Em C D
somewhere in the night

tender is the night
G C D C/D
when you hold your baby tight
G C D C D G C/D
tender , tender are the motions , tender is the night

G D C
between a life that we expected ,
Em D C
and the way its always been
G D C
i can t walk back in again ,
Em D C
after the way we fight
G D C
when just outside there are people laughing ,
Em D C
living lives we used to lead
G D C
chasing down the love they need ,
Em C D
somewhere in the night

G C D C/D
tender is the night
G C D C C/D
and the benediction of the neon light
G C D C D G C/D
tender , tender are the hunters , tender is the night
