Seize The Night Cifras

Capo 3
 
[Intro] (x4)
C          Cadd4
 
[Verse 1]
C                               Cadd4
Who would've thought it would finish like this
       C                Cadd4
at the back of a bus at 2:36
        C                   Cadd4
And you try to explain why things aren't the same
        C                    Cadd4
you've grown up a little you haven't really changed
        C            Cadd4
And the song came on just before dawn
    C                             Cadd4                      C
you tried to catch sleep but she's run off to torment your mind
        Cadd4                 C
And you lie there awake and unnerved
     C                        F                   G
and you really don't like the first verse
                              F
and you're thinking about the universe
 
[Chorus]
          C          Em                       F
Seize the night, let shadows run wild in your mind
          C          Em                            F
Seize the night, and do your best to lose track of time
          C              Am         G       F
Seize the night, and the path won't feel so long
           F                           C
Cos if you know where you are when you wake up
       F                           C
if you know where you are when you wake up
       F                           G
if you know where you are when you wake up something's wrong
 
[Instrumental] (x2)
C               Cadd4
 
[Verse 2]
C                   Cadd4
Never knew it would take this long
     C                     Cadd4
The same old streets, the same old songs
     C                  Cadd4
The same wise words from old man John
C                        Cadd4
Where does he go now the grey horse is gone?
C                  Cadd4
Closed down the 12 bar last week
C                Cadd4
I remember you dancing on Denmark Street
C                   Cadd4       C
Asking where we're going next
F                                  G
Those are the days I'll always know best
             F                                     G
And they're ripping this city's heart out of it's chest
 
[Chorus]
F          C         Em                        F
Seize the night, let shadows run wild in your mind
          C          Em                            F
Seize the night, and do your best to lose track of time
          C              Am         G       F
Seize the night, and the path won't feel so long
           F                           C
Cos if you know where you are when you wake up
       F                           C
if you know where you are when you wake up
       F                           G
if you know where you are when you wake up something's wrong
 
[Instrumental] (x2)
C               Cadd4
 
[Verse 3]
          C             Cadd4
It's just black 17 and red number 5
     C                       Cadd4
ten minutes to the pound four years of your life
C                   Cadd4
Wish I could write a letter to the past
    C                 Cadd4
A warning to say its gonna happen so fast
C                      Cadd4
Johnny used to say he believed in ghosts
               C                     Cadd4
They were the little things that he loved the most
          C                    Cadd4
Well we never got rich and we never got famous
 C                Cadd4
I heard Alice got married in Vegas
        C                Cadd4                     C
If you see her won't you tell her that I said goodbye
      F                               G
And I never forgot that fateful Valentine
      F                              G
And I never forgot the tears in her eyes
 
[Chorus]
F          C         Em                        F
Seize the night, let shadows run wild in your mind
          C          Em                            F
Seize the night, and do your best to lose track of time
          C              Am         G       F
Seize the night, and the path won't feel so long
           F                           C
Cos if you know where you are when you wake up
       F                           C
if you know where you are when you wake up
       F                           G
if you know where you are when you wake up something's wrong
 
[Instrumental] (x4)
C               Cadd4
 
[Bridge]
            Am                                 Em
Well if you blink then you'll miss it when the times are changing
        F                       C
Cuz its out of fashion when its on TV
   Am                  Em
Before you know it your eyes are ageing,
     F                          F               F
Your telling your kids, "That used to be me"
        Am               Em
Well we got off the bus a kiss on the cheek said
F                       C
"Maybe I'll give you a call next week"
Am                 G                F
We both know those calls will never come
       Am                 G                        F                         G
But as long as we're still breathing there'll be somewhere left to run
 
[Chorus]
F          C         Em                        F
Seize the night, let shadows run wild in your mind
          C          Em                            F
Seize the night, and do your best to lose track of time
          C              Am         G       F
Seize the night, and the path won't feel so long
           F                           C
Cos if you know where you are when you wake up
       F                           C
if you know where you are when you wake up
       F                           G
if you know where you are when you wake up something's wrong
