Blackness Of The Night (Cat Stevens)
-----------------------------------------------------------------
G C D G
In the blackness of the night I seem to wander endlessly
(G) C D
with a hope burning out deep inside
C D G Em
I'm a fugitive, community has driven me out
C D7 G Em
For this bad, bad world I'm beginning to doubt
G C Dsus4 D
I'm alone and there is no one by my side
G C D G
In the blackness of the night I see a shadow passing by
(G) C D
from the heels of an old soldier boy.
C D G Em
There's no comprimising and his eyes are black as the sky
C D7 G Em
For this bad, bad world he is going to die.
G C Dsus4 D
He's alone and there is no one by his side
G C D G
In the blackness of the night I see a sparkle of a star
(G) C D
from the sweet silver tear of a child
C D G Em
and she's clutching at a photograph of long, long ago
C D7 G Em
When her parents were happy she was too young to know
G C Dsus4 D
she's alone and there is no one by her side
