F Here come the lonely night C I can't escape my mind Em From a broken bough C Fall into finite space Em With the roof torn down C This house is an empty place F C So tired of wandering around and starting over F C No garden grows here now just the one leaf clover Em And when the windows shuttered C It's always dark inside Em Sometimes the pain is absurd C Still it's what fate decides Chorus: F Thought I saw Jesus come down C Dressed like a soldier F I used to cry like a clown C And now I'm older Em Here come the lonely night C Can't escape my mind Em Here come the lonely night C I can't escape my mind And the grinding wheel turns And the heavens burn As the pilot ignites is a lesson learned A sullen look of concern It might make you sad Like the fluttering bird in a dream you had Here come the lonely night I can’t escape my mind Here come the lonely night I can’t escape my mind Chorus: I saw Jesus come down Dressed like a soldier Once I cried like a clown And now I’m older Here come the lonely night I can’t escape my mind Here come the lonely night I can’t escape my mind You can simplify chords by removing barre | TransposeReset Font SizeReset Guitar Chord DiagramsA C Em F Here you can see detailed diagrams for each guitar chord used in the song.
