Californias Dark Nightwatchman
[F#]It started in basements [B]
And it started in sheds [F#]
It started in backyards [B]
And was hidden under beds [F#] [E/B]
I turned on the TV [B]
Don't believe a word they say[F#] [E/B]
We can't stay here [B]
And we can't get away [F#]
[B] There's a riot on [F#]Sunset [B]
And fires burn in the park[F#] [B]
F# E/B (Note: On the B-snare 9th fret becomes 10th)B
The sun has set my friend
And California's dark
||A F#||
And over the screaming [B]
I heard a clear voice [F#]
I looked at my choices [B]
And I made a choice [F#] [E/B]
Smoke and ashes [B]
Tonight hide the stars [F#] [E/B]
The stop lights are red now, love [B]
We've come for what's ours [F#]
[B] There's a riot on [F#]Sunset [B]
And fires burn in the park[F#] [B]
F# E/B (Note: On the B-snare 9th fret becomes 10th)B
The sun has set my friend
And California's dark
|| A || F#5 ||
[F#5]Come stand among the rattlesnakes
At the side of the desert road
And close your eyes and listen
[B5]To the music hard and cold [F#5]
Tonight the moon is blackened
Tonight the doors are shut
Behind the shuttered windows
We[B5] pray the sun will come up [F#5]
[F#]For something walks across these fields
For which there is no name
You might have heard different
[B]But I was there when it came [F#]
It will start with a spark
And a great fire will grow
Don't know how I know it [B]
But I just know [F#]
There's a riot on Sunset [B]
And fires burn in the park [F#] [B]
The sun sets [F#]everywhere
And the[B] whole damn country's dark [F#] [B]
There's a riot on [F#]Sunset [B]
And fires burn in the park [F#] [B]
F# E/B ( Again with the 10th fret on the B ) B
The sun has set my friend
|| A F# || B B A F# ||
And California's dark
