Am
I'm waiting for the night to fall
                    Cm
I know that it will save us all
                  G#
When everything's dark
                  Cm
Keeps us from the stark
Fm          G
Reality

                    Am
I'm waiting for the night to fall
                   Cm
When everything is bearable
                 G#
And there in the still
             Cm
All that you feel
       Fm        G
Is tranquillity


[Verse 1]
Eb                     Ab
There is a star in the sky
Fm                      G
Guiding my way with its light
Eb                     Ab
And in the glow of the moon
Fm                  G
Know my deliverance will come soon


[Chorus]
                    Am
I'm waiting for the night to fall
                    Cm
I know that it will save us all
                  G#
When everything's dark
                  Cm
Keeps us from the stark
Fm          G
Reality

                    Am
I'm waiting for the night to fall
                   Cm
When everything is bearable
                 G#
And there in the still
             Cm
All that you feel
       Fm        G
Is tranquillity


[Verse 2]
Eb                      Ab
There is a sound in the calm
Fm                   G
Someone is coming to harm
Eb                     Ab
I press my hands to my ears
Fm                              G
It's easier here just to forget fear


[Bridge]
Fm
And when I squinted

The world seemed rose-tinted
G                      Cm
And angels appeared to descend
Fm
To my surprise

With half-closed eyes
       G
Things looked even better

Than when they were opened


[Chorus]
                     Am
Been waiting for the night to fall
                     Cm
I knew that it would save us all
                 G#
Now everything's dark
                  Cm
Keeps us from the stark
Fm       G
Reality

Am
Been waiting for the night to fall
                  Cm
Now everything is bearable
                G#
And here in the still
             Cm
All that you feel
       Fm       G
Is tranquillity
