[INTRO:] G+G C majorC G+G D MajorD G+G C majorC G+G D MajorD G+G C majorC G+G D MajorD G+G C majorC G+G D MajorD

[VERSE 1:]
G+G            C majorC  G+G
Darkness comes down on city
        D MajorD
Another day is done
G+G            C majorC
Street lights you up so pretty
    G+G            D MajorD
You and me can have some kind of fun

[VERSE 2:]
       G+G            C majorC
But there's a light in the basement doorway
    G+G           D MajorD
How's about you and me stick around
    G+G             C majorC
Take a chance you can have it all your way
           G+G       E minorEm  D MajorD   G+G
If you tell me you'll stay when the night comes down


[CHORUS:]
            E minorEm            G+G
'Cause the night is an ocean, never reaching the end
          E minorEm             G+G
But if you got the notion, I got the money to spend
         E minorEm           G+G
We can keep it in motion, do it all over town
           E minorEm  D MajorD  C majorC      D MajorD      G+G
What you gotta do is stay with me when the night comes down
E minorEm D MajorD   C majorC D MajorD C majorC
Say you'll be around
E minorEm  D MajorD  C majorC   D MajorD   G+G   D MajorD
When the night comes down
E minorEm  D MajorD   C majorC D MajorD  C majorC
Say, let's go downtown
E minorEm  D MajorD  C majorC      D MajorD      G+G
Stay with me when the night comes down


[INTERLUDE:] G+G C majorC G+G D MajorD G+G C majorC G+G D MajorD G+G


[VERSE 3:]
           C majorC       G+G
See them all coming in from streets
               D MajorD
All their stuff and money to burn
G+G                   C majorC
They all know they're gonna get their business fixed
          G+G          D MajorD
They're gonna have fun, got nothing to learn

[VERSE 4:]
G+G             C majorC
Some of them will go home lonely
G+G                 D MajorD
Some of them will tear each other apart
G+G                  C majorC
Some of them, like me and you, have seen it all
     G+G       E minorEm  D MajorD    G+G
Just keep dancing to the beat of their heart


[CHORUS:]
            E minorEm            G+G
'Cause the night is an ocean, never reaching the end
          E minorEm             G+G
But if you got the notion, I got the money to spend
         E minorEm           G+G
We can keep it in motion, do it all over town
           E minorEm  D MajorD  C majorC      D MajorD      G+G

[VERSE 5:]
G+G            C majorC
Some people go to the mountains
G+G                D MajorD
Some people, they go down to the sea
