Ten Year Night

	  		


nd Fret 


Intro: G  G/F#  Em  C  G  G/F#  C   (2x) 

G               G/F# 
There is no one else around 
    Em                C 
The road is quiet the only sound 
   G                     G/F#                  C 
Is wind that sounds like cars, that sound like breathing 


G                 G/F# 
The desert air is hot and dry 
Em                C 
Two lanes weaving earth and sky 
    G                    G/F#        C 
The stars are all that's keeping time 'til morning 


      G               G/F# 
And I turn and look beside me 
           Em              C 
And you're sleeping like a baby  
        G               G/F#                C 
And you haven't heard a word that I've been saying 


        G       G/F# 
And the way you look tonight 
Em                 C 
Fast asleep in the dashboard light 
        G          G/F# C 
Well, I can't speak,     that's how I feel 


  
    G      Bm               C           D   G 
Open your eyes and look at me, look at me 
          Bm  C            D   Em 
Open your eyes and look at me 
         C        G         D        Em 
'Cause I have and hold this love for you 
  C             G        D        Em 
Before ere this ten year night is through 
            D 
I'm telling you 
             G  G/F#   Em 
Take it from me  
C            G   G/F#  C 
Take it from me 



G                        G/F# 
We're ten years older, I know we are 
         Em                   C 
Than the night we met in that downtown bar 
    G                  G/F#         C 
You thought I was some kind of star, that's what you said 


  G                 G/F# 
I felt your skin, I felt the heat 
       Em              C 
As you pulled me out into the street 
        G                    G/F#         C 
And you kissed me there 'til I   was weak, 'cause I asked you to 


G                 G/F# 
Later on, on your kitchen floor 
Em                    C 
Two flights above the grocery store 
  G                   G/F#        C     
I felt things I never felt before, and I still do 


   
G          Bm               C           D   G 
Open your eyes and look at me, look at me 
          Bm  C            D   Em 
Open your eyes and look at me 
         C        G         D        Em 
'Cause I have and hold this love for you 
  C             G        D        Em 
Before ere this ten year night is through 
            D 
I'm telling you 
             G  G/F#   Em 
Take it from me  
C            G   G/F#  C 
Take it from me 



Bridge: 
                    G        Em 
Going eighty on the highway 
                  D          C 
We're all rushing somewhere 
              G             Em 
But the way I feel tonight 
             D        Em 
It's like I'm already there 


  
   G       Bm               C              D   G 
Open your eyes and look at me and look at me 
          Bm  C                 D                 Em 
Open your eyes, oh, and look at me and look at me 
         C        G         D        Em 
'Cause I have and hold this love for you 
  C             G        D        Em 
Before ere this ten year night is through 
            D 
I'm telling you, telling you

Take it from me
