Oh, yeah Here comes the night

E                              B
I can see right out my window walking
down the street my girl
       E        A B
With another guy
    E                                        B
His arms around her like it used to be with me
                E         A B
Oh it makes me want to die

Chorus:
E                  A
Yeah, here it comes
                E    A
Here comes the night
                      E
Yeah, here comes the night
A                        E    B
Yeah... (here comes the night)

There they go, funny how they look so good together
Wonder what is wrong with me
Why cannot I accept
The fact she's chosen him
And simply let them be?

Chorus

Oh she is with him
They are turning down the lights
Now he is holding her the way I used to do
I can see her closing her eyes
And telling him lies
Exactly like she told me too

Chorus - x2
