Capo 4th fret

Standard (EADGBE)

Verse 1

Hey I Csus9 can't say that I love you,

 I can't say that I don't,

I Csus9 can't say that I couldn't,

 And I won't say that I won't,

But I Csus9 really like your company,

 I'm enjoyin' meself no end,

But Csus9 I can't keep from thinkin'...

 (o-oohh)

Chorus

Csus9Why don't we share,

 The darkness tonight?

Csus9Make it warm,

 And burning bright,

Csus9I'm not sayin' nothin',

 I'll be polite,

Csus9Why don't we share,

 The darkness,

Tonight,

Played in unison with female vocals (in Gaelic:)

Tâ an dorcheadas ag teacht anuas,

Tar abhaile liom, a ghrâ,

(Translates: Darkness is falling, come home,

with me, a ghrâ)

Verse 2

(same chords)

Life's too short for wastin',

For 'ifs' and 'might have beens,'

Life's too short for wonderin',

If you could have lived your dreams,

And it's way too short for lonliness,

And we don't have to be,

Now that we trust each other,

Why don't you stay with me?

Chorus

Bridge x2

Verse 3

When the Csus9 world belongs to distant dogs,

 And the air is dark and still,

And Csus9 drunken conversations,

 Pass beneath the window sill,

And there's Csus9 someone singin' Elvis songs,

 As you make your way back home,

Csus9All your fears and worries,

 Attack when you're alone

When you're aCsus9lo - o - o- one,

When you're aCsus9lo - o - o- one,

When you're aCsus9lo - o - o- one,

Chorus

Bridge x2

Ending

Csus9Why don't we share,

 The darkness...

TooooooooCsus9night~~~~~~~~~~
