Lucy Kaplansky - Ten Year Night


CAPO: 2nd 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


CHORUS:  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


CHORUS:  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


CHORUS:  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
             G  G/F#   Em
Take it from me
C            G   G/F#  C
Take it from me
C            G   G/F#  C
Take it from me
C            G
Take it from me
