Magnificent song from Gene.
Despite the near-litigious Smiths influence, why oh why was this not a huge hit!!??
Play with lots of angst - and see if you can match Martin Rossiter's apocalyptic
'Noooooo' on the bridge!
Verse 1
=======
D A
When darkness falls across this old sky
Esus E
Yes I'll open up for you that night
D A
But still shadows they come am I safe in your arms
Esus E
Could I be your source of strength to-night
Refrain 1
=========
D
I'll wait for the day
F#m
When you creep through the window and hold me
Esus
Smash into my life and now hold me
E
Don't set me free
D
Oh I've waited too long and I'm dying
F#m
Smash into me someone and hold me
Bm
Speed into this life and now hold me
Esus E
Hold me hold me
Verse 2
=======
D A
When darkness falls across this old sky
Esus E
Yes I'll open up for you that night
D A
But still shadows they come am I safe in your grasp
