Tim Minchin - Night Will Come Acoustic Live Chords

[Intro]
Am   Am
 
 
[Verse]
Am                           C
On and on and on you stumble On Towards the evening sun
    Dm
She waits for you with open arms
    Fmaj7
You look right through her
Am
On and on you fall towards her
C
Cold embrace in shadowed doorway
Dm                                  Fmaj7
Offers nothing, still she draws you Ever to her
 
 
[Chorus]
C             G              C
On and on and on you stumble on
            F
Towards the sinking sun
Dm7               C
Turn a blind eye, fight or run
Dm                E7         Am    Am
Rest assured, the night will come
 
 
[Verse]
Am
On and on you grasp and guess
    C
And search for patterns in the mess
   Dm                                F
Of what has been and what is left to yet endure
    Am
The jester shrugs and plays his part
    C
The fear-er-ful  see only dark
    Dm                                       F
The pious with their hope-filled hearts sing hallelujah
 
 
[Chorus]
C             G              C
On and on and on you stumble on
            F
Towards the cooling sun
Dm7               C
Turn a blind eye, fight or run
Dm                E7         Am    Am
Rest assured, the night will come
 
 
[Verse]
Am
All the love and all the gold
C
All you've built and all you've sold
Dm                               Fmaj7
All the power you may hold - You won't evade her
Am
All the steel and all the bricks
C
All the math and magic tricks
Dm                                   F
All the carrots, all the sticks will not dissuade her
 
 
[Chorus]
C             G              C
On and on and on you stumble on
            F
Towards the fading sun
Dm7               C
Turn a blind eye, fight or run
Dm                E7         Am    Am
Rest assured, the night will come
 
 
[Outro]
F                              C
As for that the rest is just a test of your endurance
       Dm
You've gotta love life
 
You've gotta live life
       E7
You've gotta love life ...
Am
