[Verse 1]
The talk of night is [Bb]neari[G#]ng
As the [Bb]madman makes his [C5]rounds
[G5]The city lights appe[Bb]aring[G#]
[Bb]Into surrounding town[C5]s
[G5]All the while [Bb]I'll love [G#]you
But [Bb]leave you as you [C5]sleep
For I [G5]have [Bb]unfinished busi[G#]ness
[Bb]Right now I'm so [C5]weak[G][G5][E5][C5]
[F][G5][C5][Am][G][E][C5][F][G5]
The cops are out [Bb]patrolling[G#]
[Bb]The new night has brought the [C5]word
An[G5]nouncements [Bb]from [G#]the city
It's [Bb]brutal so I've [C5]heard
[G5]All the while [Bb]I'll love [G#]you
But [Bb]leave you as you [C5]sleep
For I [G5]may not see to[Bb]mor r[G#]ow
[Bb]Right now I"m so [C5]weak[G5][Bb][G#][G5][Bb][G#][G5][Bb][G#]
[G5]
[Bb][G#][C5][Am][A5][E5][Bb][Bb5][F][G5][G][E5][Bb5][F5][F][G5]
A lady saw the [Bb]traces[G#]
She [Bb]said of blood upon the grounds
[C5]But afte[G5]r all their sear[Bb]ching[G#]
[Bb]Nothing could be f[C5]ound
[G5]All the while [Bb]I"ll love [G#]you
But [Bb]leave you as you [C5]sleep
For I [G5]may not see [Bb]tomorr[G#]ow
[Bb]Right now I'm so [C5]weak - oh [G5]no[Bb][G#]
[G5][Bb][G#][G5][Bb][G#][G5][Bb][G#][Bb][C5]
I got home at [Fm]midnight
No [F]sleep I had [Fm]to tell
Could I reach those heavens
Or was [C5]I born to serve him so well
Next thing I discovered
I [F]awoke in the dark [Fm]room
Clock struck five knife at my side
Your [C5]life had met with doom [Am]yeah[A5][G#][G5][G#][Am]
[A5][G#][G5][G][Am][A5][E][Bb][F][G5][G][E5][Bb][F][G5]
So as the new day [Bb]opens[G#]
[Bb]The sun is cast with [C5]gloom
And [G5]as the c[Gm]over c[Bb]loses[G#]
I [Bb]cry beside your [C5]tomb[C]
[G5]Though I'll [Bb]always love [G#]you
I [Bb]couldn't stand the [C5]pain
Now it's [G5]time [Bb]to take another [G#]life
[Bb]A madman dies in vain
