Intro : FCFFC
This old house is falling down around my ears
BbFCBb
I am drowing in a river of my tears
FC
When all my will is gone you hold me sway
BbFCF
And I need you at the dimming of the day
CG
You pull me like the moon pulls on the tide
CGCFBb
You know just where I keep my better side
FC
What days have come to keep us far apart
BbFCBbA broken promise or a broken heart
FC
Now all the bonnie birds have wheeled away
BbFCF
And I need you at the dimming of the day
CG
Come the night you're only what I want
CGCFBb
Come the night you could be my confidant
FC
I see you on the street in compagny
BbFCBb
Why don't you come and ease your mind with me
FC
I am leaving for the night we steal away
BbFCF
And I need you at the dimming of the day
BbFCFBbF
Yes I need you at the dimming of the day
