Darkness Till Dawn - from Another Passenger - 1976

A      
Chain smoking cigarettes
G
Enemies across the table
Em7                             F#m7  Bm
Wonderin' if I can ever trust anyone again
A
We argue through the night
        G
The restaurant shuts, you catch your flight
Em7                               F#m7  Bm
I hail a cab with no idea where home might be

A                         G
We both believed my chance was gone
      F                   Dm7
But ain't it strange how life goes on
     C                D
A storm can never rage forever
        G      G7             C
And darkness only lasts 'til dawn

A
Hotel blinds stay drawn
G
Nothing seems to make me care
Em7                         F#m7  Bm
I can't find a reason to comb my hair
A
Folks walkin' in the street
                 G
Everyone has something to do
Em7                                     F#m7  Bm
My brain won't stop showin' those old movies of you

A                         G
We both believed my chance was gone
      F                   Dm7
But ain't it strange how life goes on
     C                D
A storm can never rage forever
        G      G7             C
And darkness only lasts 'til dawn

A
Weeks pass
           G
And your voice sounds strange on the telephone
Em7                                  F#m7  Bm
Strange how smooth and casual my own voice sounds
A
I find that I'm listening to
    G
A tune coming over my radio
Em7                                 F#m7  Bm
It makes me think of a guy I knew a while ago
F#m7  Bm      F#m7  Bm    F#m7  Bm 
A while ago, a while ago,a while ago
 
C                D
A storm can never rage forever
        G      G7             C
And darkness only lasts 'til dawn
D  C   D  C  D 
Oh, oh,oh,oh,oh........
