[Verse 1]
E A
Best things in life don't come for free
B E
Best things in life always come unexpectedly
E A
Well, we watch the clock and it comes as no surprise
B A B A
Till the day is late and we let out a sigh
B A E
'Cause we know the night could fall at any time
[Verse 2]
E A
With scissors and a comb I cut my lawn
B E
And there's no one in the world I'm counting on
E A
There's a war ragin' outside - I hope my grass stays green
B A B A
Till the day is late and we let out a scream
B A E
'Cause we know the night could fall down on its knees
[Bridge]

F#m E
We know the night
[Verse 3]
E A
You can bust your back from now till the sun goes west
B A E
Best things always come when your mind's at rest
E
In the afternoon, my mind ain't sleepy
A
It's preoccupied…… (pause)

Till the day is late and we let out a sigh

'Cause we know the night could fall at any time
F#m A E

We know the night...we know the night
