Verse, Guitar 1 tacet:
[G]Waiting for the moon to come and light me up inside
And I am [Em]waiting for the telephone to [C]tell me I'm [A]alive
Well I heard you let somebody get their fingers into you
It's getting cold in California
I guess I'll be leaving soon
Chorus:
[D]Daylight fading
Come and [Em7]waste another [C]year
All the [Em7]anger and the [C]eloquence are [G]bleeding into [D]fear
[D]Moonlight creeping around the [Em7]corners of our [C]lawn
When we [Em]see the early [Asus2]signs that daylight's [C]fading
We leave [D]just before it's gone
Repeat intro
Verse: (where indicated, gtr. 1 plays the fills below)
She said "everybody loves you"
she says, "everybody cares"
But all the things I keep inside myself,
* (w/ fill 1)
they vanish in the air * (w/ fill 2)
If you tell me that you'll wait for me
I'll say I won't be here
I want to say goodby to you
Goodbye to all my friends
Goodbye to everyone I know
Fill 1 Fill 2
