Nights Become Days

• E

Capo on 3 



Intro: E 

E			    A 
We saw in the dawn from the roof of the bar 

	B			    A	    F#m 
When nights become days and you've gone too far 

E			      A			B		A 
We listened to songbirds and rush hour cars and welcomed in the day 

	   E		    A 
You said, “London in summertime is great, 

    B			      A		F#m 
On days like this I feel like I could escape 

	E			A 
From things that I've done and mistakes that I've made. 

     B		A	F#m 
I'd wash it all away” 

A				E	   A				E 
We bathed like swimmers in the morning sun, waiting for our night to end 

A				E		A   Amaj7 A		E 
It felt like one of us would come down hard and one  of   us would start again 

E			    A 
It started out curious, it started out fun 

	B		    A	     F#m 
We smoked in the woods when we were young 

E			      A			 
And secretly slipped something under our tongues 

B		A 
And danced the night away 

	   E		    A 
And everyone stumbles on old cocaine 

    B			      A		    F#m 
It burns out the flesh, and it burdens the brain 

	E		     A			   B			A	F#m 
‘Til brown comes and whisks away your pain and you find you've lost your way 

A				E	   A				E 
We bathed like swimmers in the morning sun, waiting for our night to end 

A				E		A   Amaj7 A		E 
It felt like one of us would come down hard and one  of   us would start again 

F#m			    B 
Sink in the river for your death 

F#m			    B 
Sleep with the fishes, draw no breath 

F#m			    B 
Swallow forever ‘til nothing's left 

	F#m 
Take no rest 

F#m		    B	F#m			E			F#m 
Oh my friend, if you made for the shore, you'd see us here, we're all waiting 

F#m		    B	F#m			E			F#m 
Just cast your eyes down to the floor you'll see us here, we're waiting 

F#m				    B 
Don't sink in the river for your death 

F#m					    B 
You could sleep in the shade and draw some breath 

F#m					    B 
Could start fresh tomorrow, leave what's left 

		F#m		E		A 
Please draw breath, please draw breath 

			E		A 
Let's let nights become days 

    E    A    E   B   F#m      A     B 
So come down kid the roofs not safe now 

 E    A    E      B   F#m  B  A   B     A  F#m  A 
All your friends are waiting for you to get some rest
