| | Cm7 |
| | The palace guards are all sleeping |
| Their fires burn into the night |
| There's a threat of rain on the dark horizon |
| And all that's left is a quarter moon of light |
| | Cm7 |
| | He climbs up through the darkness |
| No weapon but his surprise |
| The greatest thief in the high Sahara |
| | Eb | G5 |
| | Enters the room where the sleeping princess l | ies |
| | Cm7 |
| | All your money, your pretty necklace |
| | F |
| | This is my work on such a night |
| | Eb |
| | There's a storm coming over the mountain |
| | G5 |
| | I'll be gone long before the morning |
| | F | Bb/F | F |
| | After the rain has | fallen | |
| | Eb | Db | Eb |
| | After the tea | rs have washed your eyes | |
| | F | Bb/F |
| | You'll find that I've taken | nothing that |
| | Eb | Db |
| | Love can't replace in the blink of an eye | |
| | Cm7 |
| | He was as gentle as the night wind |
| As no lover had been before |
| And the rings she wore for her bridegroom |
| | Eb | G5 |
| | Slipped from her finger and fell to the f | loor |
| | Cm7 |
| | Take me with you, take me with you |
| | F |
| | Before my lonely life is set |
| | Eb |
| | I've been promised to another |
| | G5 |
| | To a man I've never even met |
| | F | Bb/F | F |
| | After the rain ha | s fallen | |
| | Eb | Db | Eb |
| | After the tears | have washed your eyes | |
| | F | Bb/F |
| | You'll find that I've taken not | hing that |
| | Eb | Db |
| | Love can't replace in the blink of an eye | |
| | F | Bb/F | F |
| | After the thunder | 's spoken and | |
| | Eb | Db | Eb |
| | After the lightnin | g bolt's been hurled | |
| | F | Bb/F | F |
| | After the dream has br | oken, there'll | |
| | Eb |
| | Still be love in the world |
